JOB SUMMARY:

Design and build internal software used across hockey operations, including management, coaching, scouting, player development, and sports science.

The ideal candidate combines strong full-stack engineering skills with excellent data analysis and visualization instincts. Strong product sense and usability are critical.

• Build internal web applications and decision-support tools

• Develop data visualizations

• Translate complex analytical concepts into intuitive interfaces
