About the role

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.
