FloSports, a leader and innovator in digital sports media, is currently seeking a Senior Product Manager to join our Event Management team.

About the Team: The Event Management team focuses on developing sophisticated solutions that allow sports organizations to plan, run and stream their sporting events end-to-end. This role is focused on B2B, but is a critical component of our B2C fan experiences. Our customers are coaches, meet managers, meet workers, teams, athletes, event managers and rights holders. 

Our mission is to create a suite of event management tools that every sports event manager wants to use. Rights holders love us because we deliver seamless tournaments, enable monetization of their events, simplify data entry for real time live scoring that power immersive features for fans. From results, to push notifications, to live brackets, this role will deliver the backbone of the future of Wrestling, Cheerleading, Grappling and more.
We work in tandem with the Live Scoring and Results team, which is responsible for sourcing data from systems like ours, and making this data readily available to our various customer-facing teams (the FloSports apps).

We are open to remote candidates for this role with occasional travel to our Austin, TX office.

You’re a good fit if you are excited about the opportunity to:

  • Co-lead Product Discovery efforts to understand your customers, their pain points and develop effective solutions.
  • Build and maintain a product roadmap that balances customer needs with business needs.
  • Combine data analysis and user research with event/tournament managers to inform decisions
  • Foster relationships and drive alignment around event management initiatives

You will be successful here by:

  • Working closely with the Live Scoring and Results team to bolster our Sport Data database, and product offering
  • Gaining a deep understanding of who your customers are, and ruthlessly prioritizing the most impactful features event managers crave
  • Building consensus across teams from your research to bring ideas into the real world. Working with your team to deliver value, measured by hitting quarterly goals
  • Thinking holistically and connect the right dots between several large systems migrations we have in our roadmap
  • Being supremely organized, and able to deliver results in an environment that has inherent hard deadlines for live sports events

We’re excited about you because:

  • You have 5+ years of Product Management experience
  • You’re a creative problem solver. Able to proactively identify real obstacles and work with a team to find effective solutions
  • You love speaking with end-users to understand different user-journeys resulting in actionable insights
  • You are a team player who is flexible and adaptable to embrace challenges in a fast-paced environment.
  • Top-notch written and verbal communication skills. Understanding of how to adapt your language for the audience. Comfortable communicating with everyone from the C-Suite down.
  • Smart, confident, highly competent, and humble. An all-around good person.
  • Bonus points: Experience in event management, developing sport data systems, or the sport of Wrestling
