Director, Engineering - Games & Promotions

We’re looking for a seasoned Director of Engineering to lead the charge across our Games and Promotions domain—one of the most critical, fast-moving parts of our product experience. You’ll oversee multiple cross-functional teams of mobile and backend engineers responsible for building and scaling the game mechanics, promotions engine, and user-facing experiences that make our platform fun, sticky, and differentiated in the sports betting and fantasy gaming space.

This is a high-leverage role where you'll drive delivery, coach and grow high-performing teams, partner deeply with Product and Design, and shape both the technical architecture and team strategy needed to scale our systems and our impact.

• Own the execution and health of multiple teams building and maintaining core game experiences, dynamic promotions, and backend infrastructure powering player-facing systems.
• Partner closely with product, design, data, and marketing to define roadmaps, ensure alignment, and accelerate delivery of domain-level goals.
• Develop engineering leaders and ICs through coaching, mentorship, and structured growth opportunities.
• Drive engineering excellence by championing reliable, testable, and scalable systems across both mobile and backend platforms.
• Scale architecture and operations to handle increased load, complexity, and regulatory scrutiny as the business grows.
• Create clarity in ambiguity by setting vision, aligning teams, and driving tradeoffs that balance delivery, quality, and technical debt.
• Promote a culture of accountability and impact, where engineers understand the “why” behind their work and ship with urgency and pride.

• Experience building and leading large teams of managers and software engineers (30+) delivering cross-functional projects, and mentoring leaders across both technical and management tracks.
• Proven success managing cross-functional teams, especially in fast-paced consumer product environments.
• Deep technical intuition with the ability to engage meaningfully in architecture and system design conversations.
• Strong delivery orientation—you know how to ship and scale in ambiguous, high-growth environments.
• Experience partnering closely with Product and Design to co-own outcomes and align roadmaps.
• Passion for team building, coaching, and creating an environment where engineers thrive and grow.
• Experience in gaming, mobile apps, or consumer-facing promotions systems is a strong plus.

Our target starting base salary range for this position is between $250,000 and $310,000, plus target equity. The starting base salary will depend on a number of factors including the candidate’s skills and experience, among other things.

• Unlimited 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
