Our vision is to elevate chess to the same level of engagement as other major global sports, by creating a much more rewarding fan experience.
We want to contribute to demystifying chess, and make it more accessible for everyone. Through our unique platform we aim to bring an exciting combination of games, content, analysis, and more, to greatly increase the entertainment value of watching chess.
Fantasy Chess was founded in April 2023 by 17x World Chess Champion Magnus Carlsen and are now looking for top talent to help elevate Chess further.
We are moving at a really fast pace and have lots of exciting plans for the future. We are now looking for top talent to join us on this mission of making chess a global spectator sport and are hiring for several positions. If you are an experienced CTO, CFO, or CPO - or simply want to develop, design, bring content to life, or more — we would love to hear from you!
If you're passionate about sports, chess, gaming and/or building a global community, and want to work in a rapidly growing company, this could be a perfect match! As a global company, we’re open to hiring from most parts of the world, and will often travel to meet up and follow the world of Chess together as a team.
