Kitman Labs is the performance intelligence company, disrupting and transforming the way the sports industry uses data to unlock the potential of the world’s top athletes.
Driven by a passion to innovate in the areas of sports performance, analytics and user experience, we have assembled a team of the industry’s top data scientists, sports performance scientists, product and software designers and engineers.

As an engineer on the team you will:
- Help design the systems behind our Performance Medicine product, from the first technical plan through to the code that ships.
- Build the Ruby services that capture and move athlete medical data, where accuracy and privacy carry real weight.
- Take on the reliability and scaling challenges of a platform used by thousands of teams across the world's top leagues.
- Work directly with product, design, and the medical and performance staff who rely on the product, and shape it around how they actually work.
What will you bring?
- Four or more years writing software in a professional setting, ideally on a SaaS product.
- Examples of work you are proud of, where you moved a product or a team forward.
- Time spent building alongside product managers and designers, shipping things people actually use.
- Practical experience with distributed systems.
