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:

1. Work with the US product and engineering leadership to manage SAFe agile projects, define user-stories, plan sprints, conduct standup meetings, and ensure software quality, automated testing
2. Work with the engineering leadership for resource planning, resource allocation, and project plans
3. Manage time-off and leave for the India team to ensure minimal impact to projects
4. Work with the US product and engineering leaders to conduct user-acceptance testing of the product before it goes to production
5. Work with product, engineering and support leadership in the US to implement TechOps and support strategy and ensure 24x7 coverage for the platform
6. Ensure timely delivery of high-quality products that meet customer needs and align with organization short- and long-term strategy.

You'll work across various domains and with a talented group of associates spanning multiple ego-locations.

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.
•
