Shape a rapidly scaling industry.

DraftKings is growing quickly and we're looking for a Lead Software Engineer to help establish and lead a team centered around our mission of providing a best-in-class experience for customers. This position requires strong technical skills and a bias for collaboration. You will be working across teams, informing business decisions, and helping to expand our enterprise software platform.
What you'll do as a Lead Software Engineer:

  • Take ownership for the design, development, maintenance, testing strategy, and operations of a team whose work supports mission critical APIs.
  • Work closely with engineers from web, native, and backend teams to design optimal solutions, crossing over into different technology stacks where needed
  • Collaborate with business leads across the company to define milestones and deliveries for new functionality to be added to existing applications.
  • Care about agility as much as you care about scalability. We roll out products very quickly and are looking for a team that can pivot at a moment's notice.
  • Work with your team under fast deadlines to design, build, and deliver innovative applications.
  • Lead your team in design sessions and ensure your team delivers high-quality work that aligns with the missions of our applications and platform.
What you'll bring:
  • You have experience as the 'expert' on a development team where you were responsible for everything from planning to delivering key features and management of those features.
  • Expertise with at least one object-oriented language like C# or Java.
  • Experience with .NET Framework or .NET Core is preferred.
  • Strong relational database skills using technologies like MySQL or SQL Server including performance optimization
  • Experience working in cloud-based infrastructure. Experience in tenanted environments and AWS a plus.
  • Experience with large scale distributed systems and messaging systems (Kafka a plus)
  • You also have the ability to write automated comprehensive test suites at all levels of the architecture.
  • Familiarity with native application development (iOS or Android)
  • Familiarity with modern client JS frameworks, like Node.JS, React, and Redux
This position can sit in either the Boston office or remote; however, this work is to be performed entirely outside of Colorado.
