About SidelineSwap

SidelineSwap is the #1 online marketplace in sports. Since we launched in 2015, more than a million athletes have joined our community to buy and sell their gear and we were recently named one of the fastest growing marketplaces on Andreessen Horowitz's A16z Top 100 marketplace list (https://future.a16z.com/marketplace-100/).

Our small team is fully-remote (mostly US East Coast.) We prefer candidates who can work on standard East Coast working hours.

We operate in a highly autonomous, yet collaborative environment. And our curiosity inspires us to become better versions of ourselves everyday. (Learn more about our company values and how we work.)

Join us as we empower athletes by increasing access to sports.
