Live Trader – Esports (MOBA) (m/f/x)

• Have you live traded MOBA matches using in-house models, and are you comfortable setting market probabilities without using external odds?

• Do you have hands-on experience identifying underperforming live pricing models and manually correcting markets to maintain high uptime (95%+ for top-tier events)?

• Do you enjoy working with numbers and translating game knowledge into pricing decisions?

If the answers to the above questions are yes, then this role could be ideal for you!
