This includes building the services, orchestration layers, configuration tooling, monitoring and alerting systems, and internal operator interfaces required to manage, visualize, correct/enrich, and scale our automated data pipelines across thousands of global sporting events each year.

- Lead technical discussions, drive architectural decisions, and identify opportunities to improve scalability, automation, and operational efficiency as we expand across new leagues and sports globally.
- Design and maintain the foundational GeniusIQ platform that powers our live systems and supports development & iteration by other engineering teams building on this platform.
- Design and improve testing and release strategies for complex, distributed systems — including backend services, web applications, data pipelines, messaging and streaming services, real-time model inference systems, and on-site hardware components.
- Monitor, analyze, and continuously improve system performance, reliability, and scalability.
- Build solutions for simulating and replaying live inputs, system and metadata validation, automated evaluation and regression testing, and observability and alerting.
- Design and build mechanisms for enabling human or agent-in-the-loop workflows that validate, correct, and enhance outputs from the system.
Requirements
- Experience operating distributed systems.
- Experience building real-time, interactive web frontends.
- Experience designing APIs and integrating services.
- Experience managing relational databases (schema design, indexing strategies, query optimization, performance tuning, migrations, and availability considerations).
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience.
Benefits
- The base salary range for this role is $175,000 - $220,000.
