How We Work: AI-First Engineering

At SportsBiz, AI isn’t a tool you reach for occasionally-it’s a core team member. We expect our engineers to deeply integrate AI coding assistants (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot) into their daily workflow.

This doesn’t mean a lower bar for engineering; it means a higher one. We aren’t looking for code-copy-pasters. We want elite engineers who know exactly when to lean on AI to eliminate boilerplate and accelerate development, and exactly when to override it because human architectural intuition is required. You will spend less time on mundane syntax and more time solving the complex data problems that actually move the needle., * Day-One Equity: Real ownership in a platform disrupting a massive industry.

• 100% Remote & Flexible: Work from anywhere with a schedule built around async productivity.
• Rapid Career Growth: As an early engineer, your trajectory scales directly with the company.

Comprehensive Benefits: Health insurance and performance bonuses unlock immediately post-funding.
