    Default job background
    Description

    A bit about us

    Do you want to join one of the world's fastest growing sports technology companies?

    Genius Sports is at the epicentre of the global network connecting sports, brands and fans through official live data. Our mission is simple. We champion a more sustainable sports data ecosystem that benefits all parties.

    We're looking for enthusiastic and ambitious people to join our talented team.

    If you see yourself becoming part of a global family building the future of sports entertainment together, then come and grow with us.

    We put trust in our people to deliver the difference for our clients around the world. It's why many of the world's largest leagues & federations such as the NFL, English Premier League, FIBA and NCAA choose to work with Genius Sports.

    WHAT WILL YOU BE WORKING ON?

    You will join one of our established, or soon to be formed, high-performance teams within the Betting division, as we invest heavily in our core and future Betting products. You will be focusing on the delivery of technical and product-focused initiatives, to expand and scale up our industry leading Sportsbook and Risk Management products.

    One example is our Advanced Risk team, who were set up to challenge conventional wisdom about risk management for sports betting operators. Using new measures of liability that take account of correlations between different markets on an event, and by monitoring betting patterns from the moment an event is opened for betting, we apply margins asymmetrically in a way that helps operators to make higher profit margins, reduce volatility and improve customer experience with greater uptime and fewer rejected bets. Our software provides customers with a new level of flexibility over the way they manage their Sportsbooks to meet their financial objectives. Smart algorithms allow decisions about bets to be taken quickly at scale while enabling close control when desired, reminiscent of earlier days of sports betting.

    As a Senior Software Engineer you and your team will build highly distributed, real-time, dynamically scaling systems using modern CI/CD pipelines & cloud infrastructure. You will be responsible for innovating, architecting, delivering & maintaining an industry-revolutionising product.

    We will lean on your technical expertise and your pragmatic approach to problem solving; working in a team that prioritises the principles of Agile delivery and continuous improvement. You will have a Data-driven, evidence-based mentality, comfortable with the principles of continuous experimentation and validation.

    As a Senior Software Engineer you will excel at seeing beyond the immediate spec, developing a forward-looking, efficient solution that balances capability with the need to build in measured increments. Mentoring, encouraging curiosity, demonstrating high levels of ownership and thinking about the bigger picture are important at the Senior level.
