Fanatics
Fanatics Collectibles is building the future of trading cards—and we’re scaling fast. Our major licenses today include MLB, EUFA, WWE, UFC, NFL, NBA, Premier League, and more. To power this global growth, we are investing in an extensible suite of internal platforms that will serve as the digital backbone of our business—streamlining every step from project management, editorial, prepress, QA, auto & relic operations, product design, product development, supply chain, to manufacturing and distribution.
About The Role We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer who’s passionate about building high‑quality, event‑driven web applications that scale. In this role, you’ll be a key contributor to the platforms that power our collectibles ecosystem. You’ll work hands‑on with modern web technologies, contribute to architectural decisions, and help shape the engineering culture of a fast‑growing team.
What You’ll Do
Design, develop, and maintain event-driven services and real-time web applications using Elixir and Phoenix LiveView.
Build scalable, fault-tolerant systems leveraging asynchronous communication patterns (e.g., RabbitMQ, Kafka, SNS/SQS).
Partner with product managers, designers, and fellow engineers to deliver impactful features from concept to production.
Write clean, maintainable, and testable code with a focus on performance and reliability.
Contribute to architecture discussions and help evolve our event-driven and microservices ecosystem.
Mentor engineers through code reviews, pair programming, and knowledge sharing.
Participate in on‑call rotation and help troubleshoot production issues with a blameless mindset.
What We’re Looking For
5+ years of experience developing and supporting production-grade, event-driven web applications.
Strong proficiency in Elixir and the Phoenix framework (experience with LiveView is a significant plus).
Solid understanding of distributed systems, message-driven architectures, and data consistency models.
Familiarity with AWS services (e.g., Lambda, S3, RDS, ECS/EKS) and modern CI/CD pipelines.
Experience designing and maintaining RESTful or GraphQL APIs.
Strong problem-solving skills and a passion for delivering clean, well-tested software.
Self-starter with the ability to drive technical initiatives with minimal direction.
Nice to Have
Experience with RabbitMQ, PostgreSQL, and Kubernetes (EKS).
Familiarity with infrastructure as code (Terraform, CloudFormation).
Knowledge of front-end performance tuning and LiveView optimization.
Interest in sports, collectibles, or fan engagement platforms.
The salary range for this position is
$160,000 - $200,000 , which represents base pay only and does not include short-term or long-term incentive compensation. When determining base pay, as part of a final compensation package, we consider several factors such as location, experience, qualifications, and training.
