Why Fanatics?

Fanatics is always interested in bringing on new intelligent people, and we think we’re a terrific place to work. Why?

We’re Getting Stuff Done every day. It may be solving a problem in search relevance, ensuring our CSS makes our designers happy, or building a proof of concept, we #GSD Sports! There’s nothing quite like working on products that support the teams you love.

We’ve got our own set of incredibly unique challenges - things like building a platform flexible enough to burst for the traffic we see after the Super Bowl and on Cyber Monday, that can support a large number of leagues and teams, or an SDK to be used by next-generation sports apps
