At Underdog, we make sports more fun.
Our thesis is simple: build the best products and we’ll build the biggest company in the space, because there’s so much more to be built for sports fans. We’re just over five years in, and we’re one of the fastest-growing sports companies ever, most recently valued at $1.3B. And it’s still the early days.
We’ve built and scaled multiple games and products across fantasy sports, sports betting, and prediction markets, all united in one seamless, simple, easy to use, intuitive and fun app.
Underdog isn’t for everyone. One of our core values is give a sh*t. The people who win here are the ones who care, push, and perform. If that’s you, come join us.
Winning as an Underdog is more fun.
This role sits at the intersection of a high-growth sports company and regulated financial markets, giving you direct ownership over treasury operations within a registered Futures Commission Merchant (FCM).

- Manage daily cash positioning to meet customer withdrawal requests, exchange margin requirements, and regulatory minimums
- Initiate, review, and release wire transfers with strict adherence to internal controls and approval workflows
- Support exchange and clearinghouse margin funding, including variation and initial margin movements
- Monitor liquidity and identify potential shortfalls or excesses, escalating issues as needed
- Maintain accurate records of cash movements, collateral, and bank balances across multiple accounts
