Full-Stack Engineer IC-6 (payments)

DubClub Overview:

The DubClub founding team played football and baseball together at Stanford, then remained friends after college. Like many sports bettors and sports fans, we triumphed together. But we also lost together. Through it all, we did our best to utilize the timely information shared by countless sports content creators to better inform our bets. Input from these sports content creators was useful, but the methods to receive their timely content containing betting advice were unreliable. We found ourselves refreshing websites, sifting through timelines, and jumping in and out of Discord servers.

When we paid these sports content creators for their advice, a great dynamic ensued. They made money from our payment for their content, and we lost money less frequently. Thus, DubClub was born to serve sports content creators that are serious about making a lot of money from their sports betting content. Our product is the business operating system for sports content creator CEOs (our “partners”) to easily inform more consumers and achieve financial freedom.

Since our founding, we have facilitated over $50 million in subscription payments for our partners and delivered hundreds of millions of messages containing informational sports betting content to consumers. People make more money and more informed sports betting decisions with DubClub.

We are backed with Series A funding from leading Silicon Valley investors, several public company internet founders, sports industry veterans, and Hall of Fame athletes.

Our Vision and Our Mission:

Our vision is to build the destination where anyone can benefit from sports content. Our mission is to help more people Win More Together™.
