Key skills for this role

You'll own real-time data pipelines, shape the API that algorithmic traders live in, and have a real say in architecture decisions. One day you're deep in systems-level code, the next you're shipping a frontend component with Design. If sports, markets, and genuinely hard engineering problems get you out of bed in the morning, read on.

Novig is building America's #1 sports prediction market. Our mission is to financialize and democratize sports trading - taking a closed system run by casinos and turning it into a fair, efficient, two-sided market where the power sits with users.
With Novig recently becoming a CFTC-designated market — the fastest designation of its kind in US history— we're bringing the prediction market built for sports fans nationwide.
We're backed by some of Silicon Valley's top investors — Pantera, Forerunner, Lux, NFX, Paul Graham, and Joe Montana — who have collectively invested over $100M behind this vision.
