Building out this brand presents significant product and engineering challenges. At the center of solving those challenges is the TAPPP Product Engineering team which is responsible for the TAPPP product end to end.

TAPPP is led by a very able leadership team drawn from Industry leaders from companies like ESPN, Amazon, Blackhawk, Kargocard, Visa, and

many others.

The organization is flat, processes are minimal, individual responsibility is big, and there is an emphasis on keeping non-productive influences out of the everyday technical decision-making process. Upholding these philosophies will be imperative as we execute our aggressive plan of global expansion over the next 2 years.

Position Description

As Senior Technical Product Manager on the TAPPP digital platform, you'll be responsible to:

What You'll Bring

• Strong experience in software project management, resource planning, and team management
• Some experience in Television, particularly sports. Some prior experience on sports betting would be ideal but not required.
• A creator and a doer - you identify a problem, envision a solution, and take a hands-on approach towards building it; you index high on grit and "can-do" moxie.
• A clear communicator - you break down complex concepts and make them easy to understand.
• A generous collaborator - you are excited by the opportunity to work with cross-functional teammates to create successful products.
