Description

Hi, we’re Underdog!

We’re the fastest-growing sports gaming company ever.

We build innovative games and products for American sports fans.

Founded in 2020, our team built four of today’s most widely played fantasy games and recently launched our Underdog Sportsbook. We are the only sportsbook to ever launch on our own home grown technology, which allows us to build different and innovative experiences. We believe there’s so much more to be built for sports fans, and we’ll continue to win by building the best products and experiences for our customers.

The opportunity in front of us to become the biggest company in our space is massive; after all, we’re currently sitting in the fastest-growing consumer industry in the U.S. In just over two years, we reached a nearly $500 million valuation through some of the best investors in the game, including Mark Cuban, Kevin Durant, BlackRock, and SV Angel. We are many times larger now and our growth is not slowing down.

At Underdog, we believe that sports are for everyone and are building a tomorrow for every fan. Want to help create that future? Join us.

About the role and why it’s unique:

  • As a Senior Data Scientist on the marketing data team, you’ll be developing and delivering models and analyses that optimize marketing programs.
  • Build end-to-end predictive modeling systems for marketing teams
  • Analyze business and marketing performance, identifying trends and root causes
  • Design and execute experiments, interpret results, and enhance marketing performance
  • Create interactive dashboards, visualizations, and data/modeling applications to communicate insights and other model outputs
  • Implement and maintain model evaluation, monitoring, alerting, and logging mechanisms to ensure the health and accuracy of Underdog’s modeling systems
  • Mentor junior analysts and data scientists, lead technical initiatives, and drive results in a fast-paced, dynamic environment
  • Work with cross-functional teams to identify data-driven solutions to a variety of business problems

Who you are:

  • At least 4 years of experience building models to solve complex marketing problems (e.g., MMM, multi-touch attribution, CLTV, churn, etc.)
  • Strong skills in SQL, at least one of either Python or R, and cloud-based data platforms
  • Highly focused on delivering results for internal and external stakeholders in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment
  • Strong analytical and problem solving skills
  • Excellent leadership and communication skills with ability to influence and collaborate with stakeholders

Even better if you have:

  • Strong interest in sports
  • Prior experience in the sports betting industry

Our targeted compensation rate for this position is between $150,000 and $180,000, depending on experience, plus equity. Think your skills are exceptional and warrant higher pay? Apply anyway! If we agree, we're willing to negotiate.
