Who we are
We’re here to fix a rigged system where the house sets the rules and always wins. Novig is the future of sports markets. It’s a peer-to-peer prediction market built to be a fair and transparent alternative to traditional sportsbooks. We put users first.
Why work here, in the words of the people who do
“Novig is extremely well positioned to win. We have the people, the culture, and the business to take advantage of the opportunity and maximize the markets and our valuation.”
“I joined Novig because it gave me a chance to be a part of a revolution.”
“I’m still here because I want to go head to head with the very best in our industry”
If you want responsibility, trust, and the chance to help build the future of sports prediction markets - take your shot, the market is open.
The Fine Print
Our work is tied to live sports - that means potential nights, weekends, and pressure included.
If you need clear swim lanes, a heavy process, or someone to tell you what to do, this won’t be the right environment.
Who you are and why this role will excite you
Lead operations for a high-volume, transaction-based platform, with ownership across payments, settlements, reconciliations, treasury, and financial operations
Bring a strong foundation across finance, operations, and internal process design, including accounting, budgeting, forecasting, and reporting
Operate effectively in regulated and complex environments such as fintech, marketplaces, exchanges, or similar platforms
Drive deep understanding and oversight of transaction flows, payments operations, customer funds handling, and reconciliation processes
Build and scale repeatable, efficient back-office and operational infrastructure to support rapid growth and increasing transaction volume
Manage cash flow, liquidity, and capital planning across products and markets
Establish KPIs, dashboards, and operating rhythms to monitor operational performance, risk, and efficiency
Implement internal controls, operational risk management, and audit readiness
Partner closely with Legal, Compliance, and Product teams on regulatory, AML/KYC, and payments-related requirements
Serve as a strategic, hands-on leader and trusted cross-functional partner with clear executive- and board-level communication
We cover the spread
$225k – $265k base, benchmarked at top-tier tech companies
Meaningful equity for every employee, regardless of role
Ownership is not symbolic here-it’s the point
100% health premiums covered

401(k) with 4% company match
HSA + $1,080 annual company contribution
