Job description

About the role

We’re looking for a Product Manager, Gamification to build an innovative gamified sports experience for next-gen fans. In this role, you’ll own features and systems that sit at the core of our gamified sports experience – from our primary prediction mechanic to net new gameplay.

What will I be doing?

• Own the roadmap: Define, prioritize, and execute on product features that drive engagement and retention.
• Ship features at high velocity: Lead product development from ideation → design → execution → iteration.
• Be highly data-driven: Use product analytics to identify opportunities with rigor, and guide decision-making.
• Be the resident expert on gameplay design: Design innovative ways for users to interact with live sports using game mechanics like progression loops, collectibles, streaks, and missions.
• Understand our users: Get inside the mind of Gen Z fans. What motivates them? How do they play? Why do they leave?
• Collaborate cross-functionally to drive the best outcomes: Work with design, engineering, content, data, and ops teams.
• Test, learn, repeat: Run AB tests, user surveys, to validate concepts quickly.

What do I need?

• 2–5 years of product experience in mobile gaming or consumer apps.
• Experience building gamification features that have had large, measurable impact: You've shipped a game, collectible system, live event experience, progression loops, collections, streaks, quests, etc.
• A strong understanding of how gamification levers influence monetization.
• Experience with game economy design.
• Excellent product sense. You instinctively know what makes a feature fun, valuable, and intuitive.
• Strong analytical thinking. You love data, user flows, and dashboards as much as you love a good consumer/game mechanic.
• A self-starter mindset. You're proactive, curious, and comfortable owning outcomes from 0 to 1, and act as a thought leader within Stadium Live.
• A scrappy, get-it-done attitude—comfortable rolling up your sleeves and diving into the weeds to make things work.
• Outside-the-box thinker & relentless problem solver who thrives on tough challenges and finds creative solutions under pressure.
• Passion for sports and an understanding of sports fan culture—bonus if you're tapped into Gen Z trends.

Nice to have

• Familiarity with Figma and basic wireframing/prototyping.
• Previous experience working in sports, gaming, social, or music.
• Have experience in working with AI to create efficient workflows.

Perks

• A high-impact role in a fast-growing sports tech company.
• Opportunity to shape the growth trajectory of a product loved by millions of sports fans.
• Competitive salary, equity options, and full benefits package.
