Summary Generated by Built In

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.

  • Support litigation and regulatory matters, including document management and collection, vendor coordination, and tracking of key deadlines.

    Develop trackers and dashboards to improve visibility into legal spend, contract status, and team metrics.
  • Maintain company org charts, governance calendars, and entity management documentation.
  • Partner with stakeholders across the business to improve contract review and approval processes.
