• Lead the service management function, including incident response, root‑cause analysis, change management and release governance.

• Establish SLAs/OLAs for platform availability, latency and support response times; report KPIs and trends.

• Build proactive monitoring, observability and automation tools to reduce manual intervention.

Platform Evolution & Automation

• Drive continuous platform engineering initiatives to simplify deployments, unify software stacks and reduce operational complexity.

• Collaborate with R&D and Systems & Sales Engineering to validate new hardware and software before wide release.

• Champion automation and tooling to enable Operations to run more venues with fewer manual processes.

Leadership & Team Management

• Familiarity with Hawk‑Eye, KinaTrax or comparable tracking technologies.

• Certifications in IT service management (ITIL), cloud platforms or network engineering.

This position is perfect for you if you're looking to play a pivotal role in delivering world‑class baseball data to leagues, teams and fans, while shaping operational excellence in a fast‑growing, technology‑driven environment. You'll build scalable processes, lead a high‑performing team and ensure every system installation meets the highest standards, giving the Head of Baseball the space to focus on strategic growth initiatives.

This role is not a Solution Owner, Operations Director, Systems & Sales Engineering Manager, Implementation/Project Manager or Hardware Operations Manager; it sits alongside these functions, focused on platform deployment and reliability rather than day‑to‑day operations, product roadmaps or field delivery.

We believe in fostering an environment where every team member is empowered to push boundaries and contribute to the future of sports technology. Our work is guided by three core values:
