Hi, we’re Underdog!

We’re the fastest-growing sports gaming company ever.

We build innovative games and products for American sports fans.

Founded in 2020, our team built four of today’s most widely played fantasy games and recently launched our Underdog Sportsbook. We are the only sportsbook to ever launch on our own home grown technology, which allows us to build different and innovative experiences. We believe there’s so much more to be built for sports fans, and we’ll continue to win by building the best products and experiences for our customers.

The opportunity in front of us to become the biggest company in our space is massive; after all, we’re currently sitting in the fastest-growing consumer industry in the U.S. In just over two years, we reached a nearly $500 million valuation through some of the best investors in the game, including Mark Cuban, Kevin Durant, BlackRock, and SV Angel. We are many times larger now and our growth is not slowing down.

At Underdog, we believe that sports are for everyone and are building a tomorrow for every fan. Want to help create that future? Join us.

About the role and why it’s unique:

  • Design, write, edit and test clear, compelling in-product language to help users and teams meet their goals. This includes product flows, interface language, education materials, product names, navigational nomenclature, terminology, taxonomies and other content across Underdog products and experiences.
  • Apply systems thinking to the product, whether it’s defining extensible design system guidance, conducting audits of existing experiences or creating information architecture.
  • Give and solicit feedback from your Product Design & System peers in service of building the best products.
  • Create high-fidelity design mocks using existing components in Figma, and use them to present design solutions.
  • Collaborate daily with peers in every discipline, including engineering, design, systems, marketing and data, to take products from conception to launch.
  • Demonstrate sound judgment and influence product decisions, team direction and strategy. This includes identifying potential risk for users or the company, and aligning stakeholders around significant decisions by illustrating product tradeoffs.
  • Independently and proactively identify and work on projects that span multiple teams. This may involve facilitating or co-facilitating design sprints and workshops to kick off these projects.
  • Build internal community, provide mentorship and develop skills of other content designers.

  • 5-7 years’ experience in UX writing.
  • Examples of finished wireframes, or design mocks authored using design tools, that have been used to drive decision-making within a team.

  • Familiarity with tools for managing and updating content at scale.
  • Examples of work in design systems and systems thinking.
  • Demonstrated experience leading projects with minimal direction and handling a large degree of ambiguity.

Even better if you have:

  • Experience in visual design and/or art direction
  • Experience in fantasy sports and/or sports betting
