Job description

Trackman Diamond Sports (TMDS) is seeking an Analyst for its newly formed Strategy & New Ventures group. This is a new position and will report to the Director, Strategy & New Ventures. The group operates as a small, fast-moving build team inside TMDS, responsible for turning ideas into working products and capabilities that reach customers. Its charter spans new customer-facing offerings across AI, analytics and insights, education, as well as internal tools that make the business faster and smarter.

The Analyst will spend the majority of their time building. That means prototyping concepts, standing up working tools, testing them with real users and iterating toward something TMDS can ship and support. Analysis and business cases are part of the job, but they exist to inform what gets built, not to sit as recommendations. Good candidates will be baseball and softball obsessives who are strong in querying and modeling data, capable of getting a prototype in front of people quickly, and comfortable operating with limited structure on problems that do not yet have a defined answer.

• Prototype and build customer-facing tools, products and capabilities across AI, analytics and insights, moving from concept to working demo quickly

• Test prototypes with real users and customers, gather feedback and iterate toward something TMDS can ship and support

Preferred Qualifications

• Hands-on experience with AI and large language models, including prompt engineering, API integration or building AI-assisted tools and workflows

• Ability to rapidly prototype concepts, whether through code, no-code and low-code platforms, or design tools

• Front-end or application development experience

• Experience taking an idea from concept to a working demo that others can test and react to

• Familiarity with baseball and softball data sources, tracking technology, or player development workflows
