Description
About White Swan Data
Technology is at the heart of our business and has produced consistent and significant results. We are a small but rapidly growing team of mathematicians, data scientists and software engineers constantly striving to refine our world class statistical models while also researching and deploying new ones.
Our work bridges three domains, each challenging in its own right - iGaming, quantitative research and software development. This convergence demands a rare blend of skills and creativity to identify and capitalise on inefficiencies across the iGaming landscape. The opportunities are vast, but we are only as good as the people we bring on board.
As a startup, we offer a dynamic and entrepreneurial environment where you’ll work on impactful projects and have the autonomy to explore new ideas. In‑person collaboration and innovation are at the heart of what we do, and we are always looking for individuals who can contribute their unique perspectives and talents to help us stay ahead in a constantly evolving industry.

As the company continues to expand, we are looking for an energetic individual with a basic understanding of betting processes to join our in‑house analysis team. This role will require availability for day, evening, and weekend shifts. The successful applicant will have a love of data, with a growth mindset and proactive approach that will assist our administration team in achieving their targets.
