About GamerPay

At GamerPay, we are on a mission to make it safe and easy for gamers to trade their gaming skins.

Our team is made up of gamers, marketplace experts, and serial founders, and we are backed by influential figures like Michael Seibel (co-founder of Twitch), Frederik Byskov (co-founder of Astralis), and Heini Zachariassen (co-founder Vivino). We've also raised a seed round with a group of VCs.

We are a small but mighty team, and we are looking for a Lead Backend Engineer to join us and make a real impact. We are a close-knit group that values our culture and our connection with our users and community. Our office vibe is relaxed and welcoming, and we take pride in coming to the office to keep the vibe going:)
