Company mission
To democratise crypto wealth management by making it fun, fair and community-centric.
Role
Who you are
- For this role, versatility matters more than years of experience. We care about builders who understand products, ship fast, and leverage AI to move even faster
- Experience with React/Next.js (frontend) and Node.js/Nest.js (backend)
- Comfortable with PostgreSQL, TypeScript, AWS/cloud infrastructure
- Startup experience or mentality - you've shipped fast in resource-constrained environments
- Product mindset - you think about user problems, not just technical implementation
- Genuine interest in gaming/esports - you understand the space we're playing in
Desirable
- Experience with Docker, CI/CD pipelines
- Built features involving gamification, rewards systems, or community engagement
- Worked with third-party API integrations (Discord, Twitter, Steam, etc.)
- Previous experience at a fast-growing startup
- Comfortable with designing and maintaining APIs
What the job involves
- We're looking for a full-stack engineer who thrives in a startup environment. You'll work closely with our product team, turning ideas into live features that thousands of esports fans use
- Ship End-to-End Features: Take features from concept to production. You'll be in product discussions, write both frontend and backend code, deploy to production, and monitor how it performs
- Move Fast, Break Nothing (Important): Launch features quickly, collaborate with the product team to get feedback from esports teams, iterate based on real usage. We'd rather ship something good today than something perfect in three weeks
- Be Product-Minded: You're not just implementing specs. You'll be in the room when we're figuring out what to build. Your technical insight will shape what we ship
- Work Across the Stack: Frontend (React, Next.js), Backend (Nest.js, PostgreSQL), APIs, integrations, deployments - you'll touch it all
- Understand the Product: We're building for esports teams and gaming brands. You don't need to be a hardcore gamer, but you should understand why gamification matters and what makes fans engage
Our take
Founded in 2017, SwissBorg set off with the hope to make crypto investing accessible to all through its crypto trading platform.
“Fun” isn’t usually a word you would use when you talk about investment, but SwissBorg looks to emphasise how its work and development are community driven. The “fun” proof is in the pudding; it has a YouTube channel with 10,000+ subscribers, and two successful apps, highlighting its aim to bring finance and banking into the modern world. Hitting a $1 billion valuation in 2021, it definitely seems like it's doing something right. Swissborg has attempted to set itself apart not only with its detachment from the old banking ethos but also through its use of a DAO platform, which really affirms its desire to be community led.
After much turmoil in the cryptocurrency market, SwissBorg has been highlighted as one of the safest platforms by a number of sources. This is clearly something it's prioritising just as much as immediate user needs, as it looks to ensure it doesn't become another victim of the volatility of the crypto industry. Series A funding of $23 million should go some way to quash any worries about the company's longevity.
