About AlphaFC

AlphaFC is building a fan-governed football platform that connects real-world clubs with digital governance. The platform includes live stats, rosters, game commentary, fan voting, and an upcoming team token (ATFC).

We are entering a new phase focused on stability, quality, and expansion of core features, and are looking for a senior engineer to take long-term ownership of the platform alongside product and operations leadership.

The Role

Responsibilities

  • Own and evolve the AlphaFC platform across:

    • Frontend (React / Next.js)

    • Backend (Node / APIs)

    • Solana / smart contract components (governance, voting, token logic)

  • Implement and iterate on core features, including:

    • Onchain voting and governance mechanisms

    • Platform performance and data accuracy

    • Player and team pages, including video-first content

  • Improve:

    • Code quality and structure

    • Developer experience and documentation

    • Reliability, security, and observability

  • Work closely with product and design to translate requirements into robust implementations

  • Support and eventually help onboard additional engineers

What We’re Looking For

Must Have

  • Strong full-stack background

  • Experience building and maintaining production systems

  • High standards for code quality and maintainability

  • Clear, direct communication and comfort receiving and giving feedback

  • Ability to work independently and take ownership

Strong Plus

  • Web3, token, or onchain governance experience

  • Experience with data-heavy or real-time applications

  • Early-stage startup experience

  • Prior experience mentoring or leading other engineers

  • Familiarity with Supabase, Vercel, or similar platforms

What Success Looks Like

  • The platform becomes easier to understand, maintain, and extend

  • Core features are stable, accurate, and trusted

  • New engineers can onboard smoothly

  • Technical decisions are documented and intentional

  • Product iteration speeds up without sacrificing quality

How to Apply

Please include:

  • Brief background (or LinkedIn/GitHub)
