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 an engineer:
- Kanye West, Snoop Dogg and Ice Cube all visited our offices in the last month. Snoop took pictures with people.
- We're well funded, growing fast. Just closed Detroit's largest VC round ($44MM from GV, Battery).
- Engineering team is doubling to 120ish in the next 6 months.
- Link above has some job descriptions and ways to apply.
- Our edge team is doing cool stuff with serverless. We're over a billion invocations of our lambda functions a month.
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.js), DynamoDB/Redis for caching
- Backend: PHP/MySQL moving to Node.js and 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?
