We are seeking experienced sports betting professionals to help develop our sportsbook platform and propel it to the forefront of the industry. Drawing on your experience, you will work on solving the most complex problems our Sportsbook teams face on a daily basis, at all stages from innovation and design right through to testing and release.


You will:

  • Collaborate with our Data Science and Product teams, translating complex Sportsbook subject matter to help understand business requirements;
  • Use programming languages such as Java or Python to create, enhance and refine our technical tools and solutions;
  • Document and maintain your work to a high standard, for both technical and non-technical consumption;

  • Take ownership and responsibility for the optimisation and efficiency of core Sportsbook propositions such as cashout;

What are we looking for?

We are looking for highly motivated individuals with a mix of sports betting knowledge and technical acumen. Coding capability in at least one (preferably more) of SQL, Python or Java is extremely desirable for the role, as is knowledge of the US sports betting market. You will be analytical, mathematically minded and detail orientated, with strong communication and presentation skills. There is no minimum qualification for the role, as long as you can demonstrate that you are technically proficient and up to date with developments in the sports betting world.


What’s in it for you?

We offer our employees more than just competitive compensation. Our team benefits include:

  • Competitive pay and benefits
  • Flexible vacation allowance
  • A hybrid home / office working model
  • Startup culture backed by a secure, global brand

When it comes to job hunting in artificial intelligence (AI), most candidates head straight to traditional job boards, LinkedIn, or recruitment agencies. But what if there was a better way to find roles that aren’t advertised publicly? What if you could access hidden job leads, gain inside knowledge, or get referred by people already in the field? That’s where professional bodies and specialist AI communities come in. In this article, we’ll explore how UK-based organisations like BCS (The Chartered Institute for IT), IET (The Institution of Engineering and Technology), and the Turing Society can help you uncover AI job opportunities you won’t find elsewhere. We'll show you how to strategically use their directories, special-interest groups (SIGs), and CPD (Continuing Professional Development) events to elevate your career and expand your AI job search in ways most job seekers overlook.
