Staff Frontend Engineer
Role Overview
You’ll own our two primary app surfaces: our mobile app and our web app.
Our mobile app is an Expo app and our web app is a React Router + 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: perpetuals, prediction markets)
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.
