The Crown Is Yours

As a Product Manager II, you'll lead high-impact initiatives that shape our customer experience and drive measurable business results.

  • Own the end-to-end product lifecycle - from opportunity discovery and roadmap definition to launch, iteration, and optimization.

  • Serve as the technical authority for the content management platform, leading platform architecture decisions, content modeling, API strategy, and technical discussions alongside Engineering.

  • Co-own the platform roadmap with senior Product Management leadership, prioritizing engineering investments that deliver the greatest customer and business impact.

  • Define and evolve API contracts while maintaining a clean separation between content authoring, storage, delivery, and presentation layers to support long-term platform scalability.

  • Build and expand platform capabilities that power content experiences across Sportsbook, Casino, Predictions, and other customer experiences, including personalization and jurisdiction-specific content delivery.

  • Drive automation and platform enablement by delivering tools and capabilities that reduce manual effort, empower operators, and enable other teams to build more efficiently on the platform.

  • Translate business goals and customer needs into well-defined requirements, success metrics, and delivery plans while partnering closely with Engineering, Analytics, User Experience, and business stakeholders.

  • Use qualitative insights, quantitative data, and experimentation to prioritize initiatives, evaluate performance, communicate trade-offs, and continuously improve the platform.

What You'll Bring

  • A Bachelor's Degree or any suitable combination of education, experience, and training.

  • At least 5 years of experience in Product Management with a strong track record of launching and scaling technical platforms or customer-facing experiences.

  • Experience defining platform architecture, content management systems, API strategies, or other highly technical platform capabilities in close partnership with Engineering teams.

  • Strong understanding of content management platforms, content modeling, API design, and scalable platform development principles.

  • Demonstrated knowledge of the sports betting industry, including odds, markets, parlays, and how editorial and promotional content enhances the customer experience before and during live events.

  • Proven ability to make data-driven decisions, prioritize competing initiatives, and balance short-term execution with long-term platform strategy.

  • Strong stakeholder management and communication skills with the ability to influence technical and business leaders across cross-functional teams.

  • A collaborative, customer-focused mindset with the ability to navigate ambiguity and deliver high-impact solutions in a fast-paced environment.
