About the Role

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer who’s passionate about building high-quality, event-driven web applications that scale. In this role, you’ll be a key contributor to the platforms that power our collectibles ecosystem. You’ll work hands-on with modern web technologies, contribute to architectural decisions, and help shape the engineering culture of a fast-growing team.

What You’ll Do
  • Design, develop, and maintain event-driven services and real-time web applications using Elixir and Phoenix LiveView.
  • Build scalable, fault-tolerant systems leveraging asynchronous communication patterns (e.g., RabbitMQ, Kafka, SNS/SQS).
  • Partner with product managers, designers, and fellow engineers to deliver impactful features from concept to production.
  • Write clean, maintainable, and testable code with a focus on performance and reliability.
  • Contribute to architecture discussions and help evolve our event-driven and microservices ecosystem.
  • Mentor engineers through code reviews, pair programming, and knowledge sharing.
  • Participate in on-call rotation and help troubleshoot production issues with a blameless mindset.
What We’re Looking For
  • 5+ years of experience developing and supporting production-grade, event-driven web applications.
  • Strong proficiency in Elixir and the Phoenix framework (experience with LiveView is a significant plus).
  • Solid understanding of distributed systems, message-driven architectures, and data consistency models.
  • Familiarity with AWS services (e.g., Lambda, S3, RDS, ECS/EKS) and modern CI/CD pipelines.
  • Experience designing and maintaining RESTful or GraphQL APIs.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and a passion for delivering clean, well-tested software.
  • Self-starter with the ability to drive technical initiatives with minimal direction.
Nice to Have
  • Experience with RabbitMQ, PostgreSQL, and Kubernetes (EKS).
  • Familiarity with infrastructure as code (Terraform, CloudFormation).
  • Knowledge of frontend performance tuning and LiveView optimization.
  • Interest in sports, collectibles, or fan engagement platforms.

The salary range for this position is $160,000 - $200,000, which represents base pay only and does not include short-term or long-term incentive compensation. When determining base pay, as part of a final compensation package, we consider several factors such as location, experience, qualifications, and training.
