Novig is building America's #1 sports prediction market. Our mission is to financialize and democratize sports trading - taking a closed system run by casinos and turning it into a fair, efficient, two-sided market where the power sits with users.

With CFTC approval on the horizon, we're poised to go live across all 50 states as the leading sports-focused, federally regulated market built on trust, transparency, and real user protection.

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.

Novig is building the prediction market of the future, and the interface is where users experience it. On a platform built around real money and real-time markets, every interaction has to feel fast, intuitive, and trustworthy. You'll own the client-side experiences across Novig's web and mobile applications, working closely with Design and Product to ship interfaces that hold up under scrutiny. This isn't just implementation work. You'll have a real say in frontend architecture, integrate tightly with backend services, and bring strong product instincts to how the market gets presented and experienced by users.
