THE CROWN IS YOURS
As an Android Automation Lead in our flagship Sportsbook team, you will own the test automation strategy and drive its implementation across a large team (50+ FTE) working on a multi-billion-dollar product.

If you are curious, innovative, and ready to lead change, you’ll thrive in this role. Expect your role to be split equally between hands-on technical work and leadership. About 50% of your time will be dedicated to writing code and designing technical solutions, while the other 50% will be spent mentoring team members and guiding our quality initiatives to success.
