Senior Live Streaming Engineer

Ignite Your Career Where Innovation Leads the Way!

Bally’s Interactive is redefining the future of entertainment by powering one of the world’s most dynamic entertainment ecosystems. We believe the customer experience is the product, and through technology and innovation, we create experiences that captivate and delight our customers.

You’ll apply your expertise in sports betting, iGaming, live sports streaming, payments and fraud prevention, CRM, and gamification technologies. Whether your passion lies in data, AI, machine learning, user experience, security, or emerging tech, you’ll have the opportunity to grow, innovate, put your ideas to the test, and make a real impact.

Bally’s Media operates the Bally Sports Live and Stadium sports streaming services. Bally Sports Live is a free live streaming app that allows sports fans to engage with their favorite events in real-time while fostering interactive fan communities and earning rewards for activities. Stadium, a joint venture between Bally’s and Silver Chalice (owned by Jerry Reinsdorf, who also owns the Chicago Bulls and White Sox), is a free advertising-supported streaming (FAST) sports network distributed through partners such as Samsung TV Plus, Amazon Fire TV and Prime Video, Tubi, You Tube TV, Direc

TV and Fubo. Sports and events that Bally Sports Live and Stadium broadcast include Minor League Baseball, Savannah Bananas, Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship, GLORY Kickboxing, AVP Pro beach volleyball as well as betting shows.

This role sits at the heart of our broadcast technology stack. You’ll design and operate the infrastructure that delivers high‑stakes live events, jump into real‑time troubleshooting when every second counts, and partner with vendors and internal teams to keep the stream flawless. One moment you might be deep in a Zixi workflow debugging a signal path, the next you’re leading a vendor call to bring a new capability online.
