In a few years, the whole world will pause for a moment every day to see who just became a billionaire. At our company, we’re building the first global jackpot. We're already crypto's largest jackpot with over $100M in drawings and a novel bootstrapping mechanism that builds massive prize pools. Having recently raised $5M from Tier 1 crypto investors and founders of the world’s largest iGaming brands, we are rebuilding our platform for a major launch soon.

As a Founding Fullstack Engineer, you will be deeply involved in all aspects of building this company, working across our first-party app, backend infrastructure, and developer experience. This is a high-ownership role where you will help set the strategy for the company's technical foundation and culture.

Your Role Involves:

• Application Development: Build a universally accessible, broadly appealing app that is performant for users in emerging countries while successfully abstracting crypto away.
• Backend Infrastructure: Design and build the scalable backend infrastructure to power our first-party apps and APIs for third-party developers.
• Developer Experience: Support third-party developers who embed our jackpot, give away tickets as signup bonuses, and build auto-subscription products on our protocol.
• Founding Team Partner: Act as an active partner on strategy, product, design, go-to-market, and compliance. You will wear many hats and own work streams outside your domain expertise.
• Hiring: Immediately help with hiring to build the company and culture you want.

Requirements

• Experience: 5+ years as a software engineer.
• Scale: Experience building apps at scale (1M+ users).
• Startup Experience: Proven experience working at a startup.

• Commitment: Must be prepared to be involved in all aspects of building the company as part of the founding team.

Tech Stack Context:

• You will get to decide our tech stack. Our current MVP uses TypeScript, React, Next.js, and Redis, but you will shape our systems for global scale.

Benefits

• Salary: $125,000 to $225,000 per year.
• Equity: Exceptional equity grant of 1.25% to 2%+, with a favorable 7-year exercise window.
