About the role

You’ll own our two primary app surfaces: our mobile app and our web app.

Our mobile app is a react-native app and our web app is a React + vite app.

This is an exciting time to join as we prepare to take fomo to the next level. In the next few months we plan to:

  • Add new order types

  • Add new asset classes (examples: equities)

  • Double down on new social features

Engineers at fomo aren’t constrained to any specific area - while this is primarily a frontend role, we encourage engineers to make changes across the stack where it makes sense.

This role is in-person in NYC. We have a strong in-person culture and just moved into a new spacious office in Soho.

Minimum Qualifications
  • Staff+ level engineer (6+ years of experience), deep understanding of React, able to come up with and execute on plans autonomously

Nice to Have:
  • Full-stack experience is a plus (our backend services are in TypeScript)

Being able to connect with customers and understanding the full stack of the product is something we value at fomo. All of our engineers think about improving our user experience and use the app to better understand what to improve.

Compensation and Benefits
  • Competitive cash compensation and equity

  • Comprehensive health insurance including medical, dental, and vision for you and your dependents; including tax savings benefits such as HSAs and FSAs

  • 401(k) with match

  • Group term life insurance

  • Flexible time off

  • Annual company offsites
