Apr 03, 2025 - Travoom is hiring a remote Full-stack Rust Engineer. đź’¸ Salary: founding engineer-level equity and token allocation, deferred salary until funding is secured. đź“ŤLocation: USA.
Role Description
We need a fullstack and backend Rust engineer to architect and implement the core infrastructure of OleOle. This person will be our technical North Star — working directly with the CEO and playing a foundational role before we expand the team with mobile, frontend, and DevOps engineers.
This is not just a job — this is a co-founder level opportunity for the right engineer.
You’ll lay the foundation for an ambitious native Rust platform that includes:
- A decentralized social graph with public profiles, clubs, and messaging
- Real-time chat and video sharing (similar to WhatsApp and TikTok)
- A blockchain-integrated, no-fee marketplace with cashback in OleOle tokens
- A multilingual content engine with AI translation into 200 languages
- A mini-program ecosystem allowing brands, teams, and creators to build apps inside OleOle (like WeChat)
You’ll own and scale:
- Authentication and user identity (phone-based and wallet-based)
- Token-based rewards system
- API architecture for mobile and web frontends
- Messaging and real-time communication (event streams, sockets)
- Smart routing, caching layers, and database infrastructure
This isn’t a basic MVP — OleOle is aiming to be the dominant global platform for sports fans:
- Supporting over 200 countries, 20,000 professional teams, and millions of fans
- Disrupting the ticketing, media, betting, content, and e-commerce industries — across football, basketball, and beyond
- Backed by exclusive partnerships with federations like the Asian Football Confederation, and expansion plans into Latin America, Europe, and Asia
- Launching in 200 languages with global crypto wallets, real-time updates, and embedded commerce
We're not just building an app — we’re building an ecosystem.
Qualifications
- 7-10+ years of software engineering experience (preferably at early-stage startups or high-growth platforms)
- 2+ years of experience working in Rust in production environments, ideally on scalable web or blockchain-native backends
- Strong experience designing modern, scalable backend architectures from scratch — including authentication, real-time messaging, microservices, APIs, caching, and database design
- Proficiency with Rust frameworks like Actix, Axum, Tokio, or Rocket
- Experience with WebAssembly, gRPC, or GraphQL is a plus
- Passion for decentralization, crypto, Web3, and building products that empower users
- Comfortable working without product managers, defining scope, and leading engineering direction
- Bonus: experience with blockchain integration, tokenomics, or building in no-fee marketplaces
Requirements
- Creative problem solver who can courageously propose and support new ideas to our organization.
- Ability to adapt and welcome the opportunity to solve a broad range of problems using a wide array of technologies.
- Comfortable with ambiguity, shifting priorities and general growing pains of an early-stage technology company.
- An exceptional entrepreneurial judgment that fosters independence over micro-management.
- Understanding of football and international sports a huge plus.
Benefits
- Founding engineer-level equity and token allocation
- Deferred salary until funding is secured
- Long-term ownership and technical leadership
- A mission-driven, elite team with deep experience in sports, media, crypto, and startups
- You’ll be one of the first engineers — which means maximum influence and upside.
