Fractal is looking for Software Engineers with extensive experience in building complex infrastructure to support large scale applications and APIs. We solve unique problems at a huge scale, especially considering how small of a team we are. We prioritize performance, clear and concise code, monitoring, and teamwork. Fractal engineering is truly a high performing team and we hold our engineers to a high standard of excellence.
We use Go for our backends and deploy to GCP. Infrastructure work is an important part of many of our projects, along with numerous feature-based projects to support product development. Due to our backend working with the blockchain, there are many new and creative infrastructure concerns we deal with every day.

Fractal is the leading gaming NFT marketplace built where players are able to discover, buy and sell gaming NFTs from best in class Web3 games. We believe gaming NFTs will bring about the next monumental evolution of gaming.
A major shift is happening where in-game assets are becoming NFTs on the blockchain; this unlocks real ownership for players, and new layers of programmability and interoperability in and between games. Creators will be able to make all sorts of new experiences on top of NFT games. This is the future of gaming that our team is excitedly building for.
In addition to Fractal launchpad and marketplace, we empower game developers and gamer communities via our SDK, proprietary tooling, and elevated levels of partner service and ethics. Our mission is to create an open platform for the exchange of digital goods and help games to find their passionate community.
