Job description

The fastest-growing sports gaming company – ever.

We build innovative games, products, and experiences for American sports fans.

We’re here to shake up the fastest growing industry with bold ideas, custom-built tech, and the drive to win.

Founded in 2020, our team has built four of today’s most widely played fantasy games and launched the Underdog Sportsbook – built entirely in-house with our own technology. That means we control our product, move fast, and create experiences you won’t find anywhere else.

In just over two years, we’ve reached over a $1.2 billion valuation, with investors like BlackRock, Spark Capital, SV Angel, Mark Cuban, Kevin Durant, and Adam Schefter. And we’re just getting started.

At Underdog, we believe that sports are for everyone. Join us.

About the role and why it’s unique:

As a Senior QA Engineer, you will play a dual role in triage management and QA engineering, ensuring a high-quality user experience and faster issue resolution. You will establish a structured bug triage process while also contributing to test planning, automation, and release validation across key product domains. If you thrive in a fast-paced, high-impact environment and want to shape the future of sports gaming QA, this role is for you!

• Drive continuous improvements in QA processes that include feature test planning, regression testing, and overall test coverage.
• Own release testing for iOS and Android managing risk assessments and triage workflows for our weekly releases.
• Establish a structured triage process to quickly identify, prioritize, and resolve bugs and incidents, minimizing user impact. This involves being part of on-call hours and live game support.
• Improve visibility into test health and coverage across the organization.
• Implement automated bug reporting tools and monitoring integrations to enhance test planning, and defect analysis.
• Mentor and coach development teams on best QA practices, fostering a culture of quality ownership.

Who you are:

• 5+ years of experience in QA engineering, with expertise in test strategy, test planning, and bug triage.
• Highly focused on delivering results for internal and external stakeholders in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.
• Experience with TestRail or similar test suite/case management tools.
• Proven ability to lead release testing efforts and manage complex test environments interfacing with multiple teams.
• Strong collaboration skills, with the ability to mentor development teams on best testing practices.
• Experience working with offshore QA teams and coordinating large-scale regression testing.
• Expertise in modern testing methodologies and troubleshooting tools like Crashlytics, DataDog, and Proxyman.
• Hands-on experience in testing APIs, web services, and understanding data flow between front-end and back-end systems.

Even better if you have:

• Experience in working on multiple projects at once.
• Familiarity with Native mobile automation using XCUITest, XcodeCloud, Android Studio, Jetpack Compose.
• Basic knowledge of major sports (NFL, MLB, NBA) and how they are played.
• Familiarity with daily fantasy sports and/or sports betting.

Our target starting base salary range for this position is between $135,000 and $160,000, plus target equity. The starting base salary will depend on a number of factors including the candidate’s skills and experience, among other things.

What we can offer you:

• Unlimited PTO (we're extremely flexible with the exception of the first few weeks before & into the NFL season)
• 16 weeks of fully paid parental leave
• A $500 home office allowance
• A connected virtual first culture with a highly engaged distributed workforce
• 5% 401k match, FSA, company paid health, dental, vision plan options for employees and dependents
