Why Join Us

We’re not just building products — we’re building the future of the trading card hobby. Backed by Fanatics, the largest name in sports merchandise with 900+ league and team partnerships and access to over 81 million fans, we’re combining the speed of a startup with the scale of a global platform.

From day one, the tools we design will shape how millions of collectors buy, sell, rip, and show off what they love. With exclusive licensing deals across the MLB, NFL, and NBA, we’re in a unique position to reimagine the entire collector experience — and we’re just getting started.

What That Means on the Design Team

We move fast. There’s a lot to build, and we do it with urgency — without ever compromising on craft.

We design for scale. Our work has to flex across platforms, audiences, and collector journeys — and still feel unmistakably us.

We’re pragmatic. We chase bold ideas, but we also know when to simplify, sharpen, and ship.

We’re product-first. Every design choice ties back to collector value. We build trust through clarity, creativity, and connection.

We’re hands-on. We lead by doing. From prototyping to pixel polish, we’re in the tools making things better — every day.

This is your chance to shape a brand collectors will recognize, rally around, and remember. You’ll have the space to explore, the support to level up, and the platform to do your best work yet.

Let’s make it legendary. Let’s build the brand collecting deserves.
