Descrição

• Support risk and liability management with respect to Sleeper’s DFS operations, conducting data analysis and modeling to identify trends, patterns, and insights. • Develop predictive models and algorithms to better understand Sleeper’s real-time liability, including risk exposure related to specific markets and events. • Conduct data wrangling, processing and cleaning operations, and design processes, as well as tools for monitoring and analyzing performance and accuracy. • Monitor all pricing for real-time odds, active player statistics markets, breaking news, and other relevant information to make real-time market adjustments / suspensions, while also ensuring that data flows from external partners are being recorded timely and accurately. • Build out user risk profiles, staying close to behavior patterns and trends, and collaborate with product and engineering teams to enhance personalization within our DFS ecosystem. • Automate risk and trading processes to scale for growth in users, sports, and markets in support of all game operations, and contribute to research and innovation for this function as a whole.

🎯 Requisitos

• Background in computer science, data science, machine learning, mathematics/statistics, or a similar field with related experience. Comfortable working with and analyzing large data sets. • In-depth knowledge of DFS, sports betting, player props, handicapping, expected value, and closing line value. Ideal candidates have extensive experience with high volumes of DFS/sports betting and real money games, either as a trader, +EV bettor, and/or oddsmaker. • Proactive – ready to hit the ground running; excited about the idea of building out processes from scratch, and not afraid to break the “sports trading mold”, challenging how the industry has historically approached risk management and trading. • Comfortable working “off hours” to align with peaks in the sports calendar.
