What they're building

Marketplace product for buying, selling and trading collectibles strong signal

Today: Buy and sell Basketball, Baseball, Football, and Pokémon cards graded by PSA, CGC, and BGS; list and sell vaulted items instantly (company site)

Roles: Senior Product Manager, Marketplace · Technical Product Manager

Requirements mention: two-sided marketplace · search · pricing · A/B testing · APIs · integrations

Inference: the two newest postings (opened October 8 and 16) both focus on the marketplace and the systems connecting buyers, sellers and partners. This suggests marketplace features and partner integrations are a current product priority.

Pricing and ML data foundation moderate signal

Today: Rip packs on-demand to reveal real slabs with instant buybacks offers (company site)

Roles: Staff Data Scientist, Pricing · Staff Data Engineer, ML Platform

Requirements mention: pricing models · sourcing heterogeneous external data via API or scraping · point-in-time joins · train/serve skew

Inference: the company appears to be building pricing models and the data pipelines that feed them, from external market data to models making decisions in production.

Inventory sourcing and category strategy moderate signal

Today: Digital packs backed by real slabs with instant buyback offers; the site also lists watches and sneakers alongside cards (company site)

Roles: Sports Card Sourcing Associate · Director of Operations Strategy

Requirements mention: sports card buying · FMV analysis · negotiating with sellers · inventory strategy · category expansion · liquidation

Inference: the company appears to be investing in how it acquires and manages the inventory behind its packs, including categories beyond trading cards. The site already shows watches and sneakers.

Logistics and operations tooling weak signal

Today: Ship directly to the vault from your home, or from grading companies and marketplaces like PSA, CGC, eBay, and Fanatics Collect (company site)

Roles: Full Stack Staff Software Engineer - Logistics, Operations & Tooling

Requirements mention: logistics · supply chain · tools that our team uses daily

No inference: one role only.

Payments, fraud and risk analytics weak signal

Today: List and sell vaulted collectibles instantly, with instant buybacks offers (company site)

Roles: Staff Data Scientist, Payments and Fraud

Requirements mention: Fraud loss · False positives · Identity verification · Authorization performance

No inference: one role only.

Where the headcount is going

Operations2
Product2
Finance 1

Of 12 open roles, 6 are in Engineering, 2 in Product, 2 in Operations, 1 in Marketing and 1 in Finance; 3 opened in the last 30 days (two Product, one Marketing) and 1 closed.

Who they need

Seniority: 6 staff, 2 senior, 2 director, 1 mid, 1 manager

Skills named most: A/B testing, SQL, APIs, economics, product analytics, pricing, search, experimentation, data pipelines, cloud infrastructure, microservices, Payments analytics

Locations: Remote status is not specified on any of the 12 postings. The Payments and Fraud posting describes Courtyard as 'remote-first', so confirm working arrangements with the company. Postings list United States (11) and New York (1, Technical Product Manager).

How to use this

If you're applying: Engineering is the largest group (6 of 12, mostly Staff-level, opened May to August). The newest postings are the two Product roles and Head of Creative - Design. Test yourself against the fit lines: the Staff Product Engineer posting asks for 6+ years of experience, and the Pricing role asks for production-grade Python and SQL.

If you're selling or recruiting: Engineering is the largest group (6 of 12 roles), but none of the 3 roles opened in the last 30 days are in Engineering. Those are Senior Product Manager, Marketplace; Technical Product Manager; and Head of Creative - Design. Lead with the pricing and data roles if the conversation is about data or ML hiring, with the marketplace Product roles for product leadership, and with the sourcing and operations strategy roles for inventory or operations.
