Blockchain Jobs in North America

Lead Mobile Engineer

Why Join Us

At BAXUS, we’re redefining the way wine and spirits are bought, sold, collected, valued, and traded—through a blend of craftsmanship and cutting-edge technology. Sitting at the intersection of booze and blockchain, we tackle big problems that matter to both the drinks industry and the decentralized future.

Whether we’re bringing transparency to rare bottle trading or turning collectors’ wishlists into live markets, we’re building products with real value, for real people. It's fast-paced, high-stakes, and full of opportunities to make an impact. But it’s also fun, collaborative, and deeply rooted in a passion for the craft and culture of fine spirits.

We’re looking for curious builders, hands-on engineers, and creative problem-solvers who want to help shape a category-defining company from the ground up. If you thrive on ownership, crave meaningful challenges, and love turning vision into product, you’ll feel right at home.

The Role

We're looking for a Lead Mobile Engineer to take full ownership of the BAXUS mobile experience. You'll drive the architecture, development, and delivery of our cross-platform mobile app, working closely with product, design, and backend teams. This is a hands-on leadership role—ideal for someone who loves both coding and building high-performing teams. Download our app baxus.co/boozapp to get a taste of what you’ll be working with.
