Staff Engineer, Payments - Core

Fanatics Betting & Gaming•Anywhere•Full-time
View Job
Compensation$180K - 250K a year

Own payments-platform architecture and build secure, high-volume distributed services while leading banking integrations and cross-team work on reliable, compliant payment flows. | Requires 8+ years of software engineering experience, deep Java and Spring Boot expertise, and a track record building production payment systems and high-scale distributed architectures. | About Us Fanatics is building a leading global digital sports platform. We ignite the passions of global sports fans and maximize the presence and reach for our hundreds of sports partners globally by offering products and services across Fanatics Commerce, Fanatics Collectibles, and Fanatics Betting & Gaming, allowing sports fans to Buy, Collect, and Bet. Through the Fanatics platform, sports fans can buy licensed fan gear, jerseys, lifestyle and streetwear products, headwear, and hardgoods; collect physical and digital trading cards, sports memorabilia, and other digital assets; and bet as the company builds its Sportsbook and iGaming platform. Fanatics has an established database of over 100 million global sports fans; a global partner network with approximately 900 sports properties, including major national and international professional sports leagues, players associations, teams, colleges, college conferences and retail partners, 2,500 athletes and celebrities, and 200 exclusive athletes; and over 2,000 retail locations, including its Lids retail stores. Our more than 22,000 employees are committed to relentlessly enhancing the fan experience and delighting sports fans globally. Overview Fanatics Betting & Gaming (FBG) is the online and retail sports betting subsidiary of Fanatics Holdings, Inc. As a Staff Engineer on the Payments team, you will be the technical owner of the systems that move money into, out of, and across Fanatics: deposits, withdrawals, and payments at checkout. The platform you will own serves Sportsbook and Casino today and is being extended to other Fanatics businesses. A key part of that work is letting a customer's shared balance appear as a payment option alongside cards and bank transfers wherever they shop, so that money already held at Fanatics does not have to leave and come back. You will also shape how Fanatics connects to processors, acquirers, and banking partners, with the aim of improving approval rates, lowering cost per transaction, and reducing the number of times the same funds are moved. This role combines deep backend expertise with architectural leadership. You will set the technical direction for payments across several teams and work closely with Fraud, Responsible Gaming, Finance, Legal, and Compliance partners to build payment flows that are reliable, cost-effective, and compliant with state regulations and card scheme rules. Responsibilities Own the architecture of the payments platform, including provider integrations, deposit and withdrawal flows, and the services other Fanatics businesses call to take payment. Design and build distributed services in Java and Spring Boot that process high transaction volume with strict requirements for correctness, security, and uptime. Build payment orchestration and routing across processors, acquirers, and payment methods, using approval rate, cost, and provider health to decide where each transaction goes, with failover when a provider degrades. Handle failure in third-party integrations by design, including timeouts, retries, idempotency, duplicate callbacks, partial failures, and reconciliation against provider and bank settlement files. Lead the technical work of onboarding new providers and banking partners, including evaluating options and defining the integration, testing, and rollout approach. Build in regulatory and card scheme requirements, such as per-jurisdiction rules and how transactions are classified, in partnership with Legal, Compliance, and Finance. Work with Fraud and Risk to bring risk signals into the payment path and to handle chargebacks and disputes, including how they are attributed when funds are used across businesses. Reduce payment cost through routing, provider terms, and design choices that avoid unnecessary movement of money. Set standards for security, data handling, and limiting PCI scope across payment services. Lead architectural reviews, design sessions, and incident postmortems, and mentor engineers across the team. Partner with product, frontend, and mobile teams so that payment experiences are consistent and clear for customers. Be open to occasional travel to Fanatics offices or industry events for planning, collaboration, and team development. Required Qualifications 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, with deep expertise in Java and Spring Boot. Experience building and operating payment systems in production, such as deposit and withdrawal flows, payment gateway or processor integrations, card payments, or ACH. Strong understanding of idempotency, reconciliation, and failure handling in systems that depend on third-party providers. Experience designing secure, high-scale, low-latency distributed systems. Experience with event-driven architectures and message streaming platforms such as Kafka. Working knowledge of security and compliance requirements for handling payment data, including PCI DSS. Demonstrated success setting technical direction and driving alignment across multiple teams. Ability to explain complex technical tradeoffs clearly to engineering, product, finance, and leadership audiences. Comfort working in a fast-paced, regulated environment with changing priorities. Preferred Qualifications Experience in online gaming, sports betting, fintech, or banking. Knowledge of how card networks, acquirers, and issuers work, including interchange, transaction classification, and chargeback processes. Experience with payment orchestration, smart routing, or building a payments platform that serves several business units. Experience integrating with banking partners or building account funding and money movement products. Experience with financial reconciliation and settlement reporting. Experience with AWS, Kubernetes, and observability tooling such as Datadog, Grafana, or CloudWatch. Interest in developer experience, clean API design, and systems that remain maintainable as more teams depend on them. Depending on the role, your interview and onboarding experience may include in-person components, such as onsite interviews or Launching into Better: LIVE—a multi-day cultural immersion in New York City for full-time, non-seasonal hires. These sessions are designed to build connection and bring our culture to life, though specific travel and participation requirements will be confirmed based on your role and location.

Set architecture strategy for an event-driven platform, lead cross-vertical initiatives, resolve complex distributed-systems issues, and mentor senior technical staff. | Requires 15+ years of software engineering experience, including 10+ years at Senior Staff level or above, plus a track record leading large cross-team programs and building stakeholder consensus. | ABOUT US Fanatics is building a leading global digital sports platform. We ignite the passions of global sports fans and maximize the presence and reach for our hundreds of sports partners globally by offering products and services across Fanatics Commerce, Fanatics Collectibles, and Fanatics Betting & Gaming, allowing sports fans to Buy, Collect, and Bet.

Our more than 22,000 employees are committed to relentlessly enhancing the fan experience and delighting sports fans globally.    ABOUT THE TEAM Every time a fan places a bet, earns a reward, or checks out on Fanatics — Fanatics Core made that possible. We build the shared foundations — identity, payments, loyalty, wallet, data, and platform — that power sports betting, ecommerce, collectibles, and beyond. We supercharge the business by providing products and capabilities so that teams can focus on what matters most: building delightful experiences for the fans. ROLE OVERVIEW We're looking for a Principal Engineer, for our Strategic Engineering Group, who serve as the technical North Star. You set the standard, make the hard calls, and shape how we scale for the next several years. This isn't a heads-down IC role. It's a seat at the table for every major technical decision we make — from how we handle sub-millisecond latency on Kafka/Redis at peak volume, to how the entire engineering org thinks about distributed systems design. You will work closely with Product Engineering, Security, Infrastructure IT, and other platform teams to build, enhance, and support our platform. Days are varied - you will sometimes lead the engineering charge on a major initiative, other times be working across all teams in fCore to shape our direction, or consulting to drive change across Fanatics, or disrupting our technical status quo with a quick proof of concept to grow and challenge a domain. RESPONSIBILITIES * Set the long-term architecture strategy for our event-driven platform, proactively eliminating risks and simplifying the codebase to prevent systemic technical debt. * Drive strategically critical, cross-vertical initiatives. Establish the patterns and trade-off frameworks that become the standard for building, operating, and scaling systems. * Serve as an ultimate escalation point for complex distributed systems problems, providing technical guidance to resolve high-stakes issues and unblock teams. * Mentor and elevate senior engineers and technical leaders, fostering a culture of accountability and raising the technical ceiling of the entire organization. * Partner with product and business leaders to define technical strategy, navigating ambiguity to build consensus on high-impact initiatives. * Champion organizational excellence by setting standards for testing, observability, incident response, and platform resilience. * Represent the organization externally through technical writing, conference talks, and open-source contributions, bringing external innovation in and sharing our progress with the broader community. QUALIFICATIONS * 15+ years of overall software engineering experience, including 10+ years operating at Senior Staff or above -  owning technical design for large, cross-team projects. * Experience leading programs that span multiple teams or verticals over a multi-quarter timeline, with minimal oversight. * Proven ability to identify business-critical problems and build the case for new investment, independent of being assigned the work. * Track record of setting technical patterns or standards that other teams have adopted without your direct involvement. * Experience mentoring Staff/Senior Staff engineers and contributing to their growth toward technical leadership. * Strong track record leading through incidents or operational risk, with a focus on systemic hardening rather than one-off fixes. * Excellent communication skills, with experience building consensus across both engineering and business/executive stakeholders. PREFERRED * Experience in payments, identity, or loyalty platforms specifically, ideally in a regulated (gaming, fintech) environment. * Experience with org convergence, platform consolidation, or large-scale architectural migration. * Familiarity with SOX, PCI, or similar control frameworks as they intersect with engineering systems.

View Job
Compensation$90K - 140K a year

Lead architecture and technical direction for platform services and integrations, mentor teams, and ensure system reliability and scalability. | 8+ years in software engineering with deep Java and distributed systems expertise, proven architectural ownership, and technical leadership. | About Us Fanatics is building a leading global digital sports platform. We ignite the passions of global sports fans and maximize the presence and reach for our hundreds of sports partners globally by offering products and services across Fanatics Commerce, Fanatics Collectibles, and Fanatics Betting & Gaming, allowing sports fans to Buy, Collect, and Bet. Through the Fanatics platform, sports fans can buy licensed fan gear, jerseys, lifestyle and streetwear products, headwear, and hardgoods; collect physical and digital trading cards, sports memorabilia, and other digital assets; and bet as the company builds its Sportsbook and iGaming platform. Fanatics has an established database of over 100 million global sports fans; a global partner network with approximately 900 sports properties, including major national and international professional sports leagues, players associations, teams, colleges, college conferences and retail partners, 2,500 athletes and celebrities, and 200 exclusive athletes; and over 2,000 retail locations, including its Lids retail stores. Our more than 22,000 employees are committed to relentlessly enhancing the fan experience and delighting sports fans globally. Job Summary Fanatics Betting & Gaming (FBG) is building the industry's most trusted, scalable, and fan-centric sportsbook experience. Our Internal Platforms power critical systems that support customer operations, marketing, support, risk, and data—through a combination of Java backend services, APIs, event-driven systems, and integrations with the SaaS and CRM platforms our business teams run on. We are seeking a Staff Java Software Engineer to set technical direction for the services and integrations that Internal Platforms runs on. This is a senior individual contributor role for an engineer who operates with minimal guidance, takes on our most complex and often cross-functional problems, and raises the bar for everyone around them. At this level, your impact is measured beyond the code you write. You will own architecture for significant parts of the platform, drive decisions that span multiple teams and systems, mentor other engineers, and partner directly with Product, Operations, Support, Marketing, Risk, and Data leadership to shape what gets built and why. You will still be hands-on—Staff engineers at FBG write and review code every week—but you will spend meaningful time on design, technical strategy, and multiplying the output of the teams you work with. You do not need to be a Salesforce specialist. Some of our systems integrate with Salesforce for CRM and workflow automation, so exposure to it is a nice to have—but we're hiring for strength in Java, distributed systems, and integration design, and we expect you to pick up the platform specifics on the job. Key Responsibilities Technical Leadership & Architecture (Primary Focus) Own the architecture for major services, integrations, and data flows within Internal Platforms, from problem definition through production operation. Lead design for complex, often cross-functional initiatives—defining the approach, surfacing trade-offs, and driving alignment across engineering teams and stakeholders. Break ambiguous, department-level problems into clear technical plans and workstreams that other engineers can execute against. Evaluate and select technologies, patterns, and vendors; know when a sophisticated design approach is warranted and when the simpler answer is the right one. Establish and evolve engineering standards for the team—API design, testing strategy, observability, deployment, and integration patterns—and get them adopted in practice, not just documented. Identify systemic technical debt and reliability risk across the platform, build the case for addressing it, and sequence the work alongside feature delivery. Hands-On Engineering Design, build, and maintain Java-based backend services (Spring Boot or similar frameworks) that are scalable, resilient, and well-tested. Take on the hardest technical problems on the team: high-throughput event processing, complex multi-system integrations, thorny data integrity issues, and production incidents that cross service boundaries. Diagnose problems at the root cause rather than the symptom, and translate what you learn into durable fixes and better instrumentation. Set the quality bar through your own code and through high-signal code reviews that teach as well as gate. Contribute to internal web applications and user interfaces backed by Java services where it moves the work forward. Mentorship & Force Multiplication Mentor and coach Senior and mid-level engineers through design review, pairing, and direct feedback; help them grow the judgment to handle complexity independently. Create learning and growth opportunities for teammates—delegate meaningful design work, sponsor stretch assignments, and share context generously. Onboard and ramp new engineers into the platform's systems and conventions. Write the documentation, runbooks, and design records that let the team operate and extend the platform without you in the room. Model an inclusive, collaborative environment where opposing views are actively invited and disagreement is resolved on the technical merits. Cross-Functional Partnership & Delivery Partner with Product Managers, Technical Program Managers, and business stakeholders to shape roadmaps—bringing technical feasibility, sequencing, and risk into the conversation early rather than reacting to finished requirements. Work directly with Marketing, Operations, Support, Risk, Compliance, and Data teams to ensure platform capabilities meet business needs and regulatory obligations across jurisdictions. Represent Internal Platforms in architecture and design discussions with other engineering teams, negotiating clean contracts and shared ownership boundaries. Communicate complex technical problems, trade-offs, and decisions clearly to both engineering and non-engineering audiences, including leadership. Drive predictable delivery for initiatives you own: scope, estimate, unblock, and own the outcome—including the parts that depend on other teams. Engage external partners and vendors on integration design and technical escalations where needed. Third-Party & SaaS Platform Integration Own the integration architecture between our Java services and the third-party platforms our business teams depend on—REST APIs, platform events, middleware—including data ownership, consistency, and failure handling. Define scalable, reusable integration patterns and prevent the platform sprawl that comes from point-to-point fixes. Lead resolution of complex integration issues spanning backend services, vendor platforms, and data pipelines. Partner with platform-specialist engineers (including our Salesforce-focused engineers) to keep integration boundaries clean and maintainable. Operational Excellence Own production health for the services in your remit: SLOs, alerting, on-call quality, incident response, and post-incident follow-through. Anticipate failure modes, capacity limits, and blockers before they surface, and build the safeguards in advance. Improve engineering practice across the team—CI/CD, test automation, release safety, and developer productivity. Hold the line on the standards required of a regulated, highly available gaming platform. Qualifications Required 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, with deep expertise in Java. Demonstrated ownership of the architecture and delivery of complex production systems, including work that spanned multiple teams or functions. Strong experience designing APIs and integrating distributed systems, with sound judgment about consistency, failure handling, and service boundaries. Track record of operating with minimal guidance: taking an ambiguous problem, defining the approach, and driving it to production. Experience mentoring engineers and raising technical standards on a team—through design review, code review, and direct coaching. Ability to communicate complex technical concepts and trade-offs clearly in writing and in person, to technical and non-technical audiences alike. Experience with Git-based workflows, code reviews, and CI/CD pipelines. Experience operating services in production, including on-call ownership and incident response. Preferred Experience with event-driven architectures (Kafka or similar) at meaningful scale. Experience in cloud environments (AWS preferred), including infrastructure-as-code. Experience with highly available or regulated systems (gaming, fintech, payments). Experience contributing to internal web UIs or tooling, including Java-backed web frameworks and/or modern front-end frameworks consuming Java APIs (React, Angular, etc.) Experience working with AI model or agent platforms, including building on or integrating agents into production workflows. Familiarity with platforms such as Anthropic, OpenAI, Amazon Bedrock, LangChain, Google Vertex AI, Microsoft Copilot Studio, CrewAI, or AutoGen is a plus. Fluency with AI-powered coding assistants to design, build, and test new functionality from the ground up—moving quickly while maintaining high code quality and test coverage—and interest in helping the broader team adopt these workflows effectively. Nice to Have Exposure to Salesforce as an integration target or platform—Salesforce APIs, platform events, or light development work in Apex, Lightning Web Components, or Flows. Helpful context, not a requirement. Salesforce certifications (Administrator, Developer). What We Value Passion for building high-quality internal platforms that directly impact business outcomes. Strong ownership mindset: you own the outcome, not just your piece of it. A solutions-first approach—you anticipate problems and bring options, not just escalations. Genuine interest in making other engineers better. Comfort operating in a fast-paced, evolving environment with incomplete information. Ranges will change based on country and state of residence, which are reflected in Geographical Zones defined by Fanatics Betting and Gaming. The range incorporates all of our Geographical Compensation Zones and is subject to change as the Zone associated with the actual offer is confirmed.

Compensation$90K - 140K a year

Lead product innovation and new product development initiatives to drive revenue growth and operational efficiencies. | 7+ years experience in product innovation and project management with demonstrated leadership in cross-functional teams and data-driven decision making. | About Us Fanatics is building a leading global digital sports platform. We ignite the passions of global sports fans and maximize the presence and reach for our hundreds of sports partners globally by offering products and services across Fanatics Commerce, Fanatics Collectibles, and Fanatics Betting & Gaming, allowing sports fans to Buy, Collect, and Bet. Through the Fanatics platform, sports fans can buy licensed fan gear, jerseys, lifestyle and streetwear products, headwear, and hardgoods; collect physical and digital trading cards, sports memorabilia, and other digital assets; and bet as the company builds its Sportsbook and iGaming platform. Fanatics has an established database of over 100 million global sports fans; a global partner network with approximately 900 sports properties, including major national and international professional sports leagues, players associations, teams, colleges, college conferences and retail partners, 2,500 athletes and celebrities, and 200 exclusive athletes; and over 2,000 retail locations, including its Lids retail stores. Our more than 22,000 employees are committed to relentlessly enhancing the fan experience and delighting sports fans globally. The Role Fanatics is building a connected ecosystem where fans can move across Betting & Gaming, Collectibles, Live, FanApp and more, powered by a single identity, a shared loyalty system, and common product experiences. We are looking for a senior product leader to build the social and community layer of that ecosystem. This is a growth job. One fan meets us across our products and is alone in all of them. We pay to acquire them four times and we work to keep them four times. The room to grow inside what we already own is bigger than anything more media spend or an additional vertical would get us. Social is how we connect it. Fandom is a group activity and our products treat it as a solo one. Profiles, friends, groups, sharing, competition and status are the mechanics that bring acquisition cost down, carry a fan from one product into the next, and give people a reason to come back that isn't another push notification. The other half of it is knowing who the fan is. We know who someone roots for, what they collect, what they've sat through as a fan. That turns a cross-sell into recognition, and it lets us answer a moment in one product with something real from another. It's a network of fans who are known and connected to each other organically. You will own social end to end: the thesis, the roadmap, the mechanics, the growth numbers and the gamification layer that sits on top. Why This Role Matters Today our products are social in name only. Fans arrive alone, play alone, and leave without having met anyone. Every vertical acquires and retains its own users, discovery runs on merchandising slots rather than on what a fan's friends are doing, and identity mostly resets at every front door a user enters here. The result is separate funnels where there should be one network. As the product leader for Growth, Social & Community, you will: Define where ecosystem growth comes from and which social mechanics unlock it Build identity and public profile as a real product Create acquisition loops that come out of the product itself Turn shared experience into a retention mechanic the whole ecosystem benefits from Make the value of a social lever measurable enough to fund Your work will directly affect blended acquisition cost, cross-product penetration and retention, Fanatics ONE membership and engagement, and the rate at which fans move from their first product into their second and third. What You'll Do Own the growth thesis and the roadmap Write the point of view: where the growth comes from, which social mechanics get us there, what each one is worth, and the order to build them in. Keep a live read on where consumer social is going and what it means for us. Build acquisition that doesn't come out of the media budget Invite, referral and friend discovery built into the product rather than sitting next to it. Sharing that fans actually want to do, which means moments worth sending rather than a share button bolted on Social surfaces that put Fanatics in front of people who aren't customers yet Connect the ecosystem through identity and the social graph Identity and a public social profile built as a real product: who someone is across verticals, who they root for, what they collect, what they're good at, carried with them instead of reset at every front door. Reputation and a record worth showing off to all fans One social graph that every vertical uses instead of each building its own. Discovery driven by what a fan's friends are doing A privacy model where being public is a choice and a safe one. Design for moments rather than campaigns Fandom runs on highs and lows, and the ecosystem gives us both the signal to see them and the means to respond. Work from context and not just behavior, understand what happened to a fan and how the fan feels about it. Bring generosity, perfect timing, and a bias toward being on the fan's side Build community that keeps people around Shared experience, including the plain fact of knowing that thousands of other fans are sitting in the same moment you are, sweating it together. Own the gamification layer Progression that means something Group and squad competition, what makes a fan recruit their friends. A clear position on where rewards genuinely change behavior and how to introduce Prove it with data Define what a social lever is worth Density against retention, invite and share loops against acquisition cost, cross-product LTV, and what a second and third product per fan is actually worth. The Bar We are not trying to catch up. We intend to be where this happens for sports fans, and we have the fan base and the ecosystem to make that the clear outcome. You are expected to know what is shipping in that space before it ships, and to tell us what it means for us. You will be working with a small, strong, AI-forward team that moves quickly. Keeping pace with them is part of the job. In practice that means you prototype, you get something in front of fans this week, and you don't wait on a sprint cycle to think and make decisions. How We Measure Success Reduction in blended acquisition cost attributable to in-product social loops Share of fans connected to at least one other fan, and density on the surfaces that matter Rate at which fans move from a first product into a second and third Retention and engagement lift among connected fans versus unconnected ones Fanatics ONE membership growth and login adoption across products Adoption of shared social and identity components by partner teams What You Bring Eight or more years in product, with real time on growth and real time on social, community or network products at consumer scale Social products rather than social features. Things where the value came from other users, and you know how graphs get built You've carried a growth number and can defend a roadmap to it Both ends of the funnel. Acquisition and retention The ability to write the narrative that gets a company aligned, and to sit with two engineers and a designer and get something in front of users this week You build fast. Prototypes over specs, days over quarters, and you cut things quickly when they don't work You use consumer social products and have opinions about them. You also understand how fans behave, the loyalty and the superstition and the heartbreak You decide at 80%, write down why, and change your mind when the data says to You can write the query, design the test, debate incrementality with a data scientist, and tell a real lift from a seasonal one You've dealt with the ugly side of user-generated content before - moderation, abuse, bad actors Things That Make Us Lean Forward A social product you shipped that outlived the team that built it A graph you grew from nothing, and a clear story about how you solved cold start Users you moved between products or business units at scale Something you built that made people feel recognized Something you killed because the data said to Three social products you admire, why each loop works, and where each one breaks Work across P&Ls where you owned the outcome but not the roadmap Something public. A product, a repo, writing, a community you started and grew Experience shipping social or UGC inside a regulated or high-scrutiny environment Why You'll Love This Role You'll build the social layer for one of the largest fan bases in sports The vision is yours to write, and it comes with real investment behind it Your work shows up across every Fanatics product rather than inside one of them You'll work with strong partners across Product, Design, Engineering and Data There is a shipping v1 to learn from and an open 2027 to define Ranges will change based on country and state of residence, which are reflected in Geographical Zones defined by Fanatics Betting and Gaming.
