What You’ll Do

• Design, build, test, deploy, and operate high-quality software supporting Fanatics Live.


• Independently own significant features, services, and technical projects from design through production.


• Build scalable frontend, backend, API, or full-stack solutions supporting live commerce, discovery, community, and transactional experiences.


• Translate product requirements and customer needs into thoughtful technical designs and implementation plans.


• Solve complex engineering problems involving architecture, performance, reliability, scalability, data, and integrations.


• Partner closely with Product and Design to shape solutions and deliver compelling customer experiences.


• Build software capable of performing reliably during high-traffic events, launches, and rapidly changing demand.


• Contribute actively to architecture discussions, technical designs, code reviews, and engineering planning.


• Improve application performance, observability, automated testing, deployment safety, and production reliability.


• Diagnose complex production issues and drive them through root-cause analysis and resolution.


• Identify technical debt and opportunities to simplify, modernize, or improve existing systems.


• Contribute to shared engineering standards, reusable components, APIs, libraries, and development practices.


• Mentor other engineers through technical collaboration, design discussions, and code reviews.

What We’re Looking For

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience building and operating production applications.


• Strong proficiency in one or more modern programming languages and frameworks used to build web applications and services.


• Significant experience with modern web application architecture, APIs, distributed systems, cloud services, or full-stack development.


• Experience independently delivering substantial technical projects or customer-facing product features.


• Strong understanding of software design, testing, debugging, performance, scalability, and maintainability.


• Ability to diagnose complex application and production problems using logs, metrics, tracing, and systematic troubleshooting.


• Strong technical judgment and an ability to make appropriate tradeoffs between delivery speed, maintainability, performance, and reliability.


• Experience collaborating effectively with product managers, designers, engineers, and other technical partners.


• Strong written and verbal communication skills.


• Experience mentoring or providing technical guidance to other engineers.

Nice to Have

• Experience with consumer-facing marketplaces, e-commerce, live streaming, social/community products, auctions, payments, or other high-traffic applications.


• Experience with real-time communication or event-driven architectures.


• Experience building applications that experience significant traffic spikes around launches or live events.


• Experience optimizing consumer web applications for performance and reliability.


• Fanatics’ architecture places Software Engineering within the Technology job family and distinguishes Senior and Staff as separate levels within the technical individual-contributor career path.
