Sr. Software Engineer
CurrentLead role in the research, design and development of a mobile Personal Profile Manager (PPM), used by Risk Management (RM) at Cantor Gaming (CG) Sports Books in Las Vegas, which allows CG to provide a client with high to virtually no-limit wagering. The PPM app informs an RM of a client's past performance stats, like: wagering trends, wins / losses, their typical wager, markets wagered on (spreads, sides, over/under-total, parlay, etc.), favorite teams, frequency of wins / losses associated with the markets and teams wagered on-with WTD, MTD and YTD figures-plus the ability to drill down to an event a client had previously wagered on at a CG sports book for any date and year, coupled with visualization of a client's wagering patterns for particular sports, markets, and other variables vs. CG. real-time risk. The idea is to inform the RM as to a client's past performance, a breaking down of wins / losses for teams, events, and markets, so the RM can make an informed decision to limit a wager, or to offer different odds / price for an event, possibly lay-off part or all of the bet to other books, and other negotiable items, to minimize risk for CG, but allowing almost unlimited wagering power for the CG client. Management had rightfully thought of, and I analyzed as true, that a "middle group" of bettors exists that go undetected due to smaller wagers, but may be winning over time. The CG Ten, where the RM already knows their wagering habits, are handled accordingly. But with the Real-Time ability to know the Current Risk on events vs. wagering, and for all wagerers big and small, makes the PPM a very important tool for the RM at Cantor Gaming.Responsibilities:• Data Mining for business intelligence (BI)• Primarily server application design and implementation• Develop designs from business specifications• Code against designs• Code reviews and champion best practices• Bug fixes and enhancements• Develop low level project plans for tasks
