Our roster has an opening with your name on it
We're seeking a Security Engineering Manager to lead our Cyber Defense Engineering team — a high-performing group of security engineers responsible for managing security risk across FanDuel's global operations. This role sits at the intersection of technical depth and people leadership. You'll need genuine security credibility to earn the trust of your team and partners, paired with the managerial craft to develop engineers, drive a compelling roadmap, and scale your charter through partnerships and automation.
Your team's purview spans endpoint security, SaaS security risk, AI guardrails and enablement, and Data Protection to name a few—a broad and consequential scope that touches every FanDueler. You will report to the Sr. Manager of Cyber Defense Engineering.
In addition to the specific responsibilities outlined above, employees may be required to perform other such duties as assigned by the Company. This ensures operational flexibility and allows the Company to meet evolving business needs.
THE GAME PLAN
Everyone on our team has a part to play
- Lead, develop, and grow a team of security engineers, investing in their technical craft, career progression, and day-to-day effectiveness
- Own the strategy and roadmap for security engineering and drive its execution
- Serve as a hands-on technical leader and security subject matter expert; earn credibility with engineers and partners alike by engaging meaningfully in technical decisions and pragmatic risk discussions
- Scale impact through automation, AI-motivated workflows, and a disciplined approach to key partnerships
- Translating 'secure by default' into practical controls that reduce risk without impeding the business
- Drive team accountability to operational excellence — owning incident response within your sphere, eliminating toil, and holding a high standard of execution
THE STATS
What we're looking for in our next teammate
- Demonstrated experience leading and growing a security engineering team, with a track record of delivering meaningful risk reduction at scale
- You have experience leading or managing engineers, either as a people manager or technical leader with people responsibility.
- Deep technical credibility across multiple security domains: Zero Trust/Conditional Access approaches, Endpoint Security, Data Protection, Mobile Device Management (MDM), SaaS Security are a few you can expect to operate in.
- Ability to engage substantively in technical design and architecture decisions — you don't need to write code, but you need to understand what your team is building and why
- Familiarity with development and automation approaches in a security context. Our team uses Python, PowerShell, Terraform, and has dabbled a little bit in Go.
- Hands-on experience building with AI tools and securing AI technologies. You understand both how to leverage AI to multiply your team's output and how to identify and mitigate the risks AI introduces to the enterprise.
- Strong strategic and roadmap planning skills: you can identify the highest-leverage opportunities, build conviction around a direction, and rally partners to execute
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
- Ability to lead with calm and clarity in a rapidly evolving threat landscape and high-ambiguity environment
- You care deeply about developing people and creating healthy, high-performing teams.
Don't check all the boxes? That's okay! We encourage you to still apply if you feel like you possess an adjacent skill set and are interested in learning more about this position.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Engineering Jobs at FanDuel
Target roles matching your exact technical stack
FanDuel hires heavily for backend, platform, and data engineering. Applying to roles that map directly to your core stack, whether distributed systems, real-time data pipelines, or mobile, signals fit faster than generalist applications.
Prepare a U.S.-format resume before applying
Drop the objective statement and multi-page format. U.S. engineering resumes run one to two pages, lead with impact metrics, and list technologies inline. Misformatted resumes stall before reaching a hiring manager.
Understand E-3 eligibility before your interview
Australian citizens can use the E-3 visa, which has no lottery and renews every two years. If you hold Australian citizenship, confirm your role qualifies as a specialty occupation before accepting an offer to avoid last-minute complications.
Ask about H-1B timing during offer negotiation
H-1B cap filings open in March for an October 1 start. If you're not cap-exempt, ask your recruiter how the company handles the gap between offer acceptance and work authorization. Start dates, bridge options, and OPT extensions all need to be aligned early.
Verify LCA filing through DOL before your start date
Your employer files a Labor Condition Application with the DOL before your H-1B petition reaches USCIS. Confirm the LCA is certified and reflects your actual work location, since remote or hybrid arrangements in regulated industries like sports betting can affect prevailing wage determinations.
Use Migrate Mate to filter open roles by visa type
Browsing FanDuel's open engineering positions by visa sponsorship type saves time if you're on OPT, H-1B, or E-3. Migrate Mate lets you filter roles specifically by the sponsorship categories FanDuel actively supports for engineering candidates.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does FanDuel sponsor H-1B visas for Engineers?
Yes, FanDuel sponsors H-1B visas for engineering roles. The company has an established pattern of filing H-1B petitions for technical positions across backend, data, and platform engineering. Because H-1B cap filings run on a fixed annual cycle with an October 1 start, you'll need to align your offer and start date with that timeline unless you're already H-1B cap-exempt.
How do I apply for Engineering jobs at FanDuel?
Applications go through FanDuel's careers page, where engineering roles are posted by team and location. Filtering by function narrows the list quickly. You can also browse FanDuel's open engineering positions on Migrate Mate, which lets you filter by visa sponsorship type so you can confirm a role supports your specific visa category before investing time in the application.
Which visa types does FanDuel commonly use for Engineering roles?
FanDuel sponsors H-1B, E-3 visa, TN visa, F-1 OPT, and F-1 CPT for engineering positions, along with Green Card pathways including EB-2 and EB-3. The right visa depends on your nationality, degree, and current status. Australian citizens benefit most from the E-3 visa, which has no lottery. Canadian and Mexican nationals may qualify for TN visa status, which can be obtained at the border.
What qualifications does FanDuel expect for Engineering candidates needing sponsorship?
Most sponsored engineering roles at FanDuel require a bachelor's degree or higher in computer science, software engineering, or a closely related field, since H-1B and E-3 sponsorship both require the role to qualify as a specialty occupation under USCIS guidelines. Strong alignment between your degree and the specific role is important. Candidates with hands-on experience in distributed systems, real-time data, or regulated-platform infrastructure tend to be competitive.
How long does the visa sponsorship process typically take for FanDuel Engineering hires?
Timeline depends on visa type. TN and E-3 can move quickly, often within weeks of an offer, since neither involves a lottery or USCIS petition queue for consular applicants. H-1B petitions follow the annual cap cycle, with USCIS processing taking several months after the lottery. F-1 OPT extensions through STEM require filing with USCIS at least 90 days before OPT expiration, so initiate that process early with your Designated School Official.
