From HR:
"StockX is the world’s first 'stock market of things' for high-demand, limited edition sneakers, streetwear, watches, and handbags. Launching in 2016, our live marketplace allows users to anonymously buy and sell limited edition consumer products with stock market-like visibility."
From me:
* Kanye West, Snoop Dogg and Ice Cube all visited our offices in the last month. That was fun, though unusual. Snoop took pictures with people.
* We're well funded, growing fast. Just closed Detroit's largest VC round ($55mm from GV, Battery).
* Engineering team is doubling to 120ish in the next 6 months. ...---...
* Link above has some job descriptions and ways to apply. I'll throw some bullet points below for searchability.
* Pretty please email me if you have serverless interest. Our edge team is doing cool stuff. You know what's cooler than a million invocations? A billion invocations.
Tech StackX:
* Clients: iOS with Swift + Android moving from Java to Kotlin + React/Redux on web
* Edge/Serverless: Cloudflare (workers are coming!), AWS API Gateway, AWS Lambdas (Node), DynamoDB/Redis for caching
* Backend: PHP/MySQL moving to Go microservices with Kubernetes, Redis, Postgres, other things
* DevOps: AWS! Terraform! So many things!
* Other: Really depends on the team. There's autonomy to try new things. What do you want to use?
Feel free to email me with general engineering questions israelvicars at stockx.com. There are some non-engineering jobs posted on our jobs portal. Ultimately, the jobs portal is a good way to apply.
