Mission: Our mission at Kambi is simple:
To help our customers grow faster than they think.
Everything we do is guided by this single ambition.
At this year's G2E show in Las Vegas, Kambi showcased how its flexible Sportsbook has been springboarding visionary operators into regulated US states ahead of its peers. http://glassdoor.com/slink.htm?key=vMHy6
Putting things into perspective
You just need an arena to prove you've got it.
Sports betting is ingrained in our DNA, but for us, it's not all about winning. It's more about providing an entertaining and exciting gaming experience - one that's compelling, fair and fun. So we're looking for people who share that ethos.
If you are a team player, who enjoys being a part of a dynamic and fast-paced environment, get excited about solving technical problems, relish the thought of responsibility and high levels of freedom, - then you’ll do your best work here. We believe in self-organising teams that take responsibility for what they build and who own the process.
A university degree in a technology field is not mandatory. We value the right mix of skills, attitude, motivation and drive; together with proven experience.
With a lot of similarities to the financial industry, Sportsbook Operations is the department that is responsible for the content of the Kambi product.
Our staff calculates odds for events, trade the bets, settle the bet offers, segment the players and analyse the trading performance. There are many different roles within the department, each performing a specialised function.
In Sportsbook Operations we have approximately 400 employees in our offices in London, Bucharest, Philadelphia, Malta and Manila made up of more than 30 nationalities. Positions in Sportsbook require a mix of high level mathematical skill, expert knowledge of sports and leagues, attention to detail and the ability to think clearly under pressure. Above all, you should be fiercely competitive and able to innovate in a dynamic, fast-changing industry.
At Kambi the Commercial and Strategy departments provide invaluable strategic development to our organisation. With roles in sales, product development, project management, business intelligence and product marketing, the department works together to ensure that Kambi’s service continues to meet the demands of the market - now and in the future.
Always leading with data, we research the market, strategise and look for insights to create value in our target segments. These insights and values are then packaged for internal and external use by the various commercial departments.
Taking a considered approach to their work, our team of deep thinkers are analytical leaders who express creativity and flair in their delivery. We believe that those who join us have an open and social mind-set to be able to transfer our values to prospects and customers alike. Furthermore, they are able to interpret this message for multicultural audiences.
Innovation is at the heart of our business and that’s why our sportsbook is able to continuously evolve, offering a first class player experience that’s unique to our operators.
Revolutionising sportsbooks we spring board operators for growth. With roles in design, development and direction, the Development team works together to ensure that Kambi’s sportsbook is always at the forefront of the industry, leading by example.
Always taking an informed and creative approach we believe in confident and inquisitive individuals who have an eagerness to succeed in their work. Being driven deliver in the Kambi way sets our developers apart from others. Our core values flow through the delivery of our product and so we act, we care and we deliver each and every time.

Application
I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Kambi (London, England).
Interview
I was contacted about a month after I submitted my CV. They asked if I would like to do a Skype interview or come in person. I chose Skype. After some confusion about the day and time (they never confirmed the appointment time and so the contacted me, apologized for the confusion, and we set up an appointment for the next day) I had about a 45-minute interview with one person. After two interview-type questions they then asked me very specific sports-related questions. The interviewer was very nice and professional. I enjoyed the experience very much.
