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.

  • Build a winning engineering culture. Cultivate a collaborative, innovative environment that thrives on technical excellence, creativity, and shared passion for delivering impactful products.
  • Champion development best practices. Advocate for and implement engineering best practices, ensuring the team aligns with industry standards and maintains a high-quality codebase.
  • Collaborate to shape the product vision. Partner closely with product managers and engineering leads to define features, plan delivery, and drive the development process from ideation to launch.
Who you are:
  • You have a minimum of one year of experience managing a high-performing mobile development team responsible for delivering high-impact features
  • 7+ years of experience building scalable, native mobile applications using modern iOS or Android technologies, frameworks, tooling, and architecture, for example, Xcode, Swift, UIKit, SwiftUI, Combine, MVVM, Xcode Cloud, Amplitude, Proxyman.io, XCTest, XCUITest, Android Studio, Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, MVVM, and Espresso.
  • Experience working with product managers in gathering requirements, investigating technical needs, and creating designs that fit within project timelines
  • High level of accountability, bias for action, and a desire to empower individuals on the team to perform at their best
  • Excellent communication, analytical, and problem-solving skills
Even better if you have…
  • Experience leading a team in a remote-first and fast-paced environment
  • Experience with regulated industries
  • Experience building web applications
  • Proficiency working in AWS or other cloud infrastructures like GCP or Azure


Our target starting base salary range for this position is between $190,000 and $215,000, plus target equity. The starting base salary will depend on a number of factors including the candidate’s skills and experience, among other things.
