Novig is a sports trading app for true fans: trade outcomes peer-to-peer, no house edge, better prices than sportsbook odds. CFTC-regulated. Live nationwide. Backed by Y Combinator.
About the role
You sit where sports meets markets. A star goes down in the third quarter, a trade rumor breaks at 11pm, a coach gets fired on a Tuesday - you decide what fans get to bet on and how fast it goes live. You shape the featured markets at the top of the app, take prop requests straight from the Discord, and list new ones while the conversation's still hot. You work when sports actually happen: game nights, Sunday afternoons, the overtime that runs past midnight.
What they're looking for
- You’re a sports fanatic with a trader’s mindset , excited to work at the intersection of sports, markets, and technology
- You are a product-oriented thinker with a deep knowledge of major sports leagues —including NFL, NCAAF, NBA, NHL, MLB, NCAAB, Soccer, and UFC—and understand the rhythms, storylines, and key moments that drive fan engagement
- You’re excited to create and curate daily featured markets , highlighting the most compelling games and matchups and shaping what users see at the top of the app
- You enjoy designing creative markets tied to major sports storylines —from trade deadlines and free agency to coaching changes and player roles—and collaborating with marketing to maximize visibility
- You thrive in fast-paced, real-time environments , making quick, data-driven decisions as games unfold and trading activity shifts
- You’re energized by engaging directly with a passionate community , interacting with users on Discord, gathering prop requests, answering questions, and helping bring new markets live quickly

We're backed by some of Silicon Valley's top investors — Pantera, Forerunner, Lux, NFX, Paul Graham, and Joe Montana — who have collectively invested over $100M behind this vision.
