What makes you stand out:

• Prior experience in the sports/gaming industry and/or a power user of the industry’s products.
• Prior experience in the social media industry and/or a power user of the industry’s products.
• Obsessive about something. We obviously love sports, but maybe it’s something else for you. What makes you tick? (Being a big sports-head definitely helps too).
• You can add to the PrizePicks Culture. We want to work with people who bring something to the table on and off the field / in and out of the office.
• You’re a do-er. Blockers aren’t blockers in your world, and when the play breaks down, you’re more of a Patrick Mahomes than a Carson Wentz.
• The ability to work with and define ambiguity.
• You have a proven track record of successfully taking products from 0 → 1.
• You have a superpower. Everyone’s got one… what’s yours?

• Our tech/product team is remote-first… so anywhere in the US is fine, but Atlanta, Chicago, or New York would be preferred if you want to maximize the PrizePicks culture offline. #LI-Remote
