What's the position?
We are seeking an experienced sports betting professional to help develop our sportsbook platform and propel it to the forefront of the industry.

* Proactively use your sporting knowledge to spot where rule changes will impact our models in order to highlight and fix problems before they arise
* Use your data analysis skills to compare historical outcomes to our current outputs, and identify the extent to which they could negatively impact the business
* Suggest ways to enhance pricing models via new algorithms and/or improved coding methods, or by investigating with external feed providers where applicable
* Appraise and test pricing changes to ensure only improvements are released to production
* Ensure that all processes are documented to a high standard and are ready for both technical and non-technical consumption
* Have the space to innovate and work on blue skies research, to help the team be the difference in a competitive marketplace
