Virtual Sports Betting Jobs (NOW HIRING)

At Underdog, we make sports more fun. Our thesis is simple: build the best products and we'll build the biggest company in the space, because there's so much more to be built for sports fans. We're just over five years in, and we're one of the fastest-growing sports companies ever, most recently valued at $1.3B. And it's still the early days.

We've built and scaled multiple games and products across fantasy sports, sports betting, and prediction markets, all united in one seamless, simple, easy to use, intuitive and fun app.

Underdog isn't for everyone. One of our core values is give a sh*t. The people who win here are the ones who care, push, and perform. If that's you, come join us.

Winning as an Underdog is more fun.

• Highly analytical with the ability to synthesize performance data into clear narratives, budget recommendations, and actionable next steps
• Background in gaming, fintech, sports betting, or a high-growth consumer app
