Job Description

Our flagship app, Boom Sports, delivers a fast, fun, and accessible Daily Fantasy Sports experience that’s open to players of all skill levels.

You will be trusted to figure things out, spot issues early, and drive solutions without heavy process or close oversight. If you want responsibility and work that has real impact, Boom can be an excellent fit. If you prefer a slower pace, highly defined tasks, or being told exactly what to do each day, Boom may not be the right environment.

Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience with DFS platforms (DraftKings, FanDuel, PrizePicks, Underdog, Boom, etc.)
- Experience in a startup or fast-paced environment where you wore multiple hats
- Experience growing a social media account from scratch or significantly scaling an existing one
This role is not for you if:
- You prefer a steady state job where priorities rarely change.
- You want highly detailed instructions before starting work.
- You are uncomfortable owning deadlines and accuracy without close oversight.
- You do not enjoy improving processes, documentation, and structure where gaps exist.
