About Novig
Novig is building America's #1 Sports Trading App. Founded by Jacob Fortinsky and Kelechi Ukah, we are the only platform to offer commission-free exchange on sports. We deliver better pricing, full transparency and a more efficient market structure for users by eliminating the traditional sportsbook model.
Backed by the best - Novig has raised tens of millions of dollars from some of Silicon Valley’s top investors including Forerunner, YC, NFX, Paul Graham, and Joe Montana.
We’re here to fix a rigged system where the house sets the rules and always wins. Novig is the future of sports markets. It’s a sports trading app built to be a fair and transparent alternative to traditional sportsbooks. We put users first.
Chronically Online Savant: You’ve spent your 10,000 hours on the timeline. You know the unwritten rules, the viral formats, and the exact moment a trend is born. You "Know Ball" and are in your comfort zone breaking news before the mainstream media or rationing bad takes in the replies.
End-to-End Asset Production: You are a true full-stack creator. You don’t wait for a design team; you concept, script, edit, and ship high-impact short-form video and static content independently.
AI-Augmented Workflow: You are always looking for the latest tools to enhance the output and improve your workflow
Chaos & Strategy: You’ll help with multi-channel posting across platforms, crafting viral hooks, and community-driven engagement that makes us a prominent voice in the industry.
Growth Engineering: You are obsessed with the backend performance data and always optimizing to improve future performance. You A/B test to directly impact follower growth, brand sentiment, and user acquisition.
The Novig Voice: You speak every platform’s language fluently. You can translate complex prediction markets into "timeline-native" content that meets the audience on a human level
Self-Directed: An organized self-starter who thrives working without direction. You see a gap in the conversation and you ship the solution without being asked.
The Pedigree: Experience running and growing social accounts
“I work with extremely stellar people, I own real systems, and decisions happen fast. No politics, no waiting for needless red tape. If something's broken, I fix it. If I build something good, it ships.”
“The people! So smart, thoughtful, fun to work with, passionate about their craft, etc”
“I'm having the most fun I've had in my entire career.”
If you want responsibility, trust, and the chance to help build the future of sports prediction markets - take your shot, we’d love to connect.
Not for Everyone
Our work is tied to live sports - that means potential nights, weekends, and pressure included.
If you need clear swim lanes, a heavy process, or someone to tell you what to do, this won’t be the right environment.
