Job 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.

What you’ll do:

Provide CFO-level partnership to our Marketing, Product, Product Operations and Operations teams, leading annual budgeting, long-range strategic planning, and rolling forecasts for these organizations.
Partner with senior leaders of these organizations to drive world-class operations.
Track key performance indicators and financial metrics, delivering actionable insights, identifying trends, and addressing risks and opportunities in a fast-paced environment.
Build, mentor, and manage a high-performing Strategic Finance team, fostering collaboration, growth, and excellence.
Drive efficiency and accuracy by implementing process enhancements within the FP&A function, leveraging advanced tools and industry best practices.

Who You Are:

8+ years in financial planning and analysis or strategic finance.
At least 4 years of management experience, including building and leading high-performing teams.
Consulting (e.g., management consulting, strategy consulting) or banking background preferred but not required.
2+ years of operational finance experience in a high-growth environment.
Expert in financial modeling, forecasting, budgeting, and variance analysis.
Strong analytical skills, with the ability to distill complex financial data into actionable insights.
Strong communication and presentation skills, with the ability to convey complex financial topics to non-financial audiences at all levels.
Proven experience scaling teams and processes in a fast-growing organization.

Our target starting base salary range for this position is between $210,000 and $260,000, plus target equity. The starting base salary will depend on a number of factors including the candidate’s skills and experience, among other things.

What we can offer you:

Unlimited PTO (we're extremely flexible with the exception of the first few weeks before & into the NFL season)
16 weeks of fully paid parental leave
A $500 home office allowance
A connected virtual first culture with a highly engaged distributed workforce
