Why Midnite?

Midnite is a next-generation betting platform that is built for today’s fandom. We are a collective of engineers and designers who all share a passion for building the best sportsbook & casino experience possible, allowing our fans to feel closer to the games they love through the rush of winning money.

Unlike the alternatives, Midnite doesn’t feel like a website built two decades ago. Instead, it’s a cutting-edge platform, designed and constructed from the ground up with the latest technologies. Crafting an experience that’s truly intuitive, immersive, and immediately understandable is no walk in the park, but we thrive on the challenge. We believe we’re on the brink of creating something truly awesome.

You’ll work closely with Product, Engineering, Compliance, and Operations, and over time this role will sit within our Core function (AFC, Safer Gambling & Complaints) as our team structure evolves.

This is a hands-on leadership role with real ownership, visibility, and the opportunity to shape how Player Support operates in a fast-growing betting business.
