The Role
Funteron sits at the intersection of sport, media, technology, and commercial partnerships. We’re building ITV OddsFinder and developing the next wave of media partnerships.
We’re looking for an experienced Engineering Manager to lead our engineering capability, build the team, and create the technology platform needed to scale ITV OddsFinder and prepare Funteron for global rollout—ensuring that what we build can be deployed efficiently across new media partners, sports, territories, and markets.
This is a key leadership role within Funteron, combining technology strategy, people management, and delivery. You’ll work closely with the founders, product, and commercial teams to turn partnership opportunities into scalable technology.
What You’ll Do
- Lead the engineering function – build, manage, and develop a high-performing engineering team.
- Own the technology strategy – define the architecture, roadmap, and technical priorities for ITV OddsFinder and future products.
- Scale ITV OddsFinder – ensure the platform is reliable, high-performing, and ready for significant audience and partner growth.
- Enable media partnerships – build reusable APIs, integrations, and technology that make launching new media partners faster and easier.
- Drive global rollout – create a platform that can efficiently support new territories, partners, sports, and market requirements.
- Own engineering delivery – establish strong development processes, standards, and accountability while maintaining pace.
- Manage technology partners – determine the right balance between internal capability and external specialists.
