Role Overview

Every fan deserves a fair game. Our Fraud Analytics team works to prevent people from trying to game the system, while making sure the vast majority of legitimate players never feel a thing. This paid internship in Atlanta works directly on real fraud questions with real data alongside our analysts and Fraud Operations.

What You'll Do

  • Investigate Fraud Patterns: Analyze onboarding, promo, and payment activity to spot abuse, size the risk, and recommend fixes that reduce fraud loss without adding friction for good players.
  • Measure What Works: Evaluate fraud controls using before/after comparisons, holdouts, and backtests, including the impact on legitimate users.
  • Build a Single Source of Truth: Build dashboards and help maintain a lightweight fraud and payment metric dictionary, and triage data anomalies with Engineering so the numbers stay trustworthy.
  • Support Stakeholders: Answer ad-hoc questions from Fraud Ops and Product with clear, reliable information and concise recommendations.

What You'll Bring

  • Proven SQL Skills: Comfortable with joins, window functions, and aggregations. Coursework and projects count.
  • Analysis Tools: Proficiency with Excel/Google Sheets and stats basics like hypothesis testing. Python, R, or Tableau is a plus.
  • A Project to Show Off: Something you can walk us through, ideally where you balanced competing goals or competing priorities. Class, work, club, and personal projects all count.
  • Excellent Communication: Able to explain complex concepts clearly to non-technical teammates and curious about how systems get abused. Passion for sports is a plus.

What We Are Looking For

  • Student Profile: Rising juniors, seniors, Master's students, or recent graduates, within 1 semester of graduation, authorized to work in the U.S.
  • Majors: Open to majors including Statistics, Mathematics, Data Science, Economics, and Computer Science.

Program Details & Location

  • Location: Onsite at our West Midtown Atlanta location.
  • Schedule: Spring Program runs from January 25 to April 30, 2026.
  • Compensation: Starting hourly rate is $30/hr.
