The Role
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.

  • Monitor and reschedule manually programmed promotions to align with upcoming sports events, adjusting the timing and content to maximize relevance
  • Collaborate with relevant stakeholders to ensure that the promotions calendar remains updated and responsive to changes in the sports schedule
  • Take on ad-hoc tasks and projects as assigned, contributing to the overall success of the promotional team

Who you are:

  • Prior experience (1+ year) in promotions, marketing, or related fields, particularly within the sports industry
  • A genuine passion for sports and fantasy sports with a strong understanding of the sports business landscape
  • Detail-oriented with excellent organizational skills to manage multiple projects simultaneously
  • Ability to thrive under tight deadlines and adapt quickly to changing circumstances
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams
  • Willingness to work a flexible schedule, including nights and weekends, based on the sports calendar

Even better if you have:

  • Experience using tools such as Optimove


Our target starting base salary range for this position is between $60,000 and $70,000, 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)
