### The Team Vibe

At the heart of Out2Win is a small, vibrant team of young innovators, spread
across the East Coast and growing rapidly. Embracing a remote-first model, we
thrive in a fast-moving environment where agility and flexibility are not just
valued, they're a way of life. Our team is the driving force behind our
mission to disrupt and lead in NIL, fueled by a shared passion for technology
and a commitment to excellence. As we continue to expand, we're looking for
individuals who are eager to grow with us, contribute to our dynamic culture,
and shape the future of our engineering team. You're not just joining a team;
you're getting in on the ground floor, with a chance to call some of the shots
and help us scout for new talent.

### **About the Role**

We're on the hunt for our Founding Engineer who thrives in startup
environments and is passionate about building from the ground up. In this
role, you'll have a unique opportunity not just to develop cutting-edge web
products but also to play a pivotal role in shaping our engineering culture.
This position is all about greenfield projects—meaning you'll be freed from
the constraints of legacy code and have the freedom to architect solutions the
right way, right from the start.

**What You 'll Do:**

* **Lead Development** : Take charge of the technical design, implementation, testing, and documentation for several new products.
* **Strategic Tech Visioning** : Shape and drive the technological vision of the platform, ensuring alignment with the broader business goals.
* **Innovate and Optimize** : Craft robust, maintainable components and libraries. Leverage plug-in technologies to enhance functionality. Advance our commitment to responsive, web-first application development.
* **Uphold Quality** : Maintain high code standards through thorough pull requests and by building automated tests with tools like React Testing Library and Cypress.
* **Algorithm Creation and Implementation** : Develop and implement algorithms that allow brands to further analyze data, generate insights, and drive decision-making.

### **The Ideal Candidate**

* Is eager to be part of a small but experienced team, ready to contribute both technically and culturally.
* Has a proven track record of delivering high-quality web applications from concept to completion.
* Is proficient in modern web technologies and tools, with a focus on React, Node.js, TypeScript, and PostgreSQL.
* Values clean code, rigorous testing practices, and sustainable engineering habits.
* Is looking for an opportunity to have a significant impact not only on product development but also on team dynamics and culture.

### **Why Join Us?**

By joining us as a founding engineer, you're not just getting a job; you're
getting the chance to help define our company's technical direction and
culture. You'll have a significant voice in our engineering decisions, the
technologies we adopt, and how we scale our team. This role is perfect for
someone who wants to build something from the ground up and see their
fingerprints on every part of the process.

If you're ready to take on the challenge and excitement of shaping the future
of our startup, we'd love to hear from you. Please apply with your resume, a
cover letter that speaks to your experiences and aspirations, and any relevant
examples of past projects or contributions. Let's build something great
together.

### About You

* Solid experience and desire to sling HTML, CSS, Tailwind, Yarn, etc.
* Modern JS skills with specific experience in React and Typescript
* Experience with ORMs and SQL esp. Postgres
* Experience working with APIs to ingest data and interfacing with vendors and partners
* Understanding of automated testing with React Testing Library and Cypress
* Knowledge of distributed version control systems (e.g. Git on Github)
* Strong knowledge of React ecosystem and opinions about what a good stack looks like
* Comfortable with sudden shifts in functionality as we respond rapidly to user feedback.
* You’re not afraid of on-call shifts and hot-fixes, if they have to happen. Of course, you know that solid testing minimizes the pain of on-call and hotfix!

**Nice to have’s:**

* Ability and willingness to document your code effectively in README’s, videos, etc.
* Experience in CD/CI/Cloud deployments such as AWS, GCP, terraform
* Experience in engineering for digitally native/software businesses & products
* Experience in devoloping/deploying enterprise-grade ML/AI models in the cloud
* Experience or strong interest in sports, NIL and/or SportsTech

### Interviewing for this role

* You’ll meet with our co-founders to assess culture fit and a general discussion about the position to understand your background and how you align with our team's dynamics.
* You’ll meet with our current engineer lead for a more in-depth conversation focusing on a typical problem you'd encounter in the day-to-day, assessing your problem-solving skills and technical expertise. (Think system design rather than leetcode, more info on the intro call)
* A more junior candidate may work on a small take-home assignment to assess style and approach.
