About The Position

Hard Rock Digital is building a team focused on becoming the best online sportsbook, casino, and social casino company in the world. We’re building a team that resonates passion for learning, operating, and building new products and technologies for millions of consumers. We care about each customer interaction, experience, behavior, and insight and strive to ensure we’re always acting authentically. Rooted in the kindred spirits of Hard Rock and the Seminole Tribe of Florida, the new Hard Rock Digital taps a brand known the world over as the leader in gaming, entertainment, and hospitality. We’re taking that foundation of success and bringing it to the digital space. We are looking for a Technology Project Manager who likes high-accountability environments. This is not a box-ticking, follow-the-process job. It is about driving outcomes, building predictability, clearing the path for others, and making sure our cloud and DevOps initiatives land on time and at quality. You will work across engineering, infrastructure, security, product, compliance, and operations to bring clarity, momentum, and delivery discipline without unnecessary bureaucracy. Sitting within the Technology Project Management function of our group-wide PMO, you will assist with leading a portfolio of cloud infrastructure and operations projects: cloud migrations, platform and reliability work, third-party integrations, tooling and automation rollouts, and cost optimization programs. You will also manage the Technology Intake backlog. Your success will be measured by your ability to make us more predictable, remove friction, and keep complex technical initiatives moving forward. You are the person who sees the risk coming, fixes the issue before it becomes a blocker, and creates the space for engineers to do their best work.
