At Magic Eden, we’re breaking down barriers to make Web3 what it should be — intuitive, accessible and of course, magical. As the #1 Bitcoin dApp and the #1 NFT marketplace, we’re leading the charge to redefine the onchain experience. Backed by top-tier investors like Sequoia, Paradigm, Electric Capital and Lightspeed Ventures, we’re building a future where trading is seamless, tokenomics are meaningful and Magic Eden fulfills its mission of making digital ownership universal. Join our global team of passionate, scrappy and wildly talented people to help shape the next era of Web3 with us.
You already know what the safe jobs look like.
Predictable hours, predictable projects, predictable boredom.
This isn’t one of those.
At Magic Eden, we’re building something that’s never been done before: a global, always-on sports betting exchange designed to be the fairest in the world. Instead of the house always winning, it’s peer-to-peer, transparent, and instant. That alone makes it compelling — fixing a system that’s been broken forever.
This is going to be raw and ambitious, and it’s going to take a team of remarkable people to pull it off.
You won’t find a polished playbook here. What you will find is:
Zero to One: Real startup chaos. If ambiguity makes you twitch, this isn’t for you.
Intensity with Purpose: The grind is probably going to be real. But so is the impact. Your work will be live, visible, and shaping an industry.
Autonomy with Educated Risks: We back people who take bold, informed bets. Mavericks welcome.
Remote Now, IRL Later: We’re starting remote, but Melbourne will soon be home to our new office, a place built for in-person energy and collaboration.
Global Collaboration: Some of the team are based in San Francisco. You might jump on the occasional late call; that’s what comes with building global from day one.
Remarkable People, Remarkable Work: Ordinary won’t cut it here. This is for builders who want agency, ownership, and outsized rewards.
What you’ll be doing
Building backend services in Node.js that power an entirely new betting exchange.
Designing scalable systems that can handle the kind of volume you’d normally see at global banks.
Working side by side with engineers, product, and design in our Melbourne hubShipping fast, iterating often, learning every day.
What you’ll bring
6+ years in software engineering (Node.js, AWS, databases, scaling).
You’ve built, scaled, and maintained production systems.
You like ambiguity. You solve problems without waiting for someone else’s instruction manual.
Bonus points if you’ve seen blockchain, sports betting, or fintech up close.
This is not a safe 9–5. You can get that anywhere.
This is high-impact, high-agency, high-reward.
Our founders have already built Australia’s fastest unicorn — Magic Eden — from zero to $1bn valuation in nine months .
We know how to scale. Now we’re doing it again.
