Job description

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.

As a Trading Assistant, you'll be responsible for grading our Pick’em and Sportsbook projections, and settling games in a timely manner. Additionally, you’ll support the Trading team by working on trading shifts, where you will manage posting and pricing of markets. This is a full-time hourly position; candidates must be able to work nights and weekends.

About the role and why it’s unique:

  • Enter player and game stats
  • Track games we offer in the app to ensure entries are paid with correct stats as markets are determined in real time
  • Work within operations for football, esports, tennis, golf, soccer, baseball, basketball, and more
  • Take on more responsibilities as you grow into the role

Who you are:

  • A sports fanatic (NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, EPL, Golf, UFC, Nascar, F1, eSports & more) who is knowledgeable about DFS and Fantasy sports props
  • Strong attention to detail
  • Committed to being a true team player
  • Ability to work nights and weekends around the sports calendar
  • Interest in sports betting

Even better if you have:

  • Prior gaming/sports betting experience
  • Prior experience with statistics, score keeping, or other detail oriented tasks
  • Prior startup experience


Our target starting base salary range for this position is $20/hr, 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:

  • Flexible 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
  • 5% 401k match, FSA, company paid health, dental, vision plan options for employees and dependents

#LI-REMOTE

We're a remote-first company and value in-person connection. That said, we expect everyone to gather 2-3 times per year for team and company offsites, trainings, and more.

This position may require sports betting licensure based on certain state regulations.
