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.
