Senior People Business Partner

About FIRY We build companies that help people create, compete, and grow. FIRY (NYSE: FIRY) is a founder‑led global holding company built to fuel business potential. Founded in 2012 by entrepreneur Andrew Paradise, FIRY began by inventing an entirely new category: real‑money skill‑based mobile gaming. What started as a single bold idea became Skillz, a platform with more than 90 million registered users and one of the largest sources of first‑party behavioral data in gaming. Today, FIRY is building something much bigger. We’re creating a portfolio of category‑defining businesses operating at the intersection of AI, identity, gaming, commerce, and performance marketing. Each business is successful on its own. Together, they create a flywheel of technology, data, and distribution that’s difficult to replicate. Skillz: The competition platform that pioneered real‑money skill‑based gaming and continues to power millions of competitive experiences while generating unique behavioral insights. RZR: Our AI‑native performance advertising platform, rebuilt from first principles and profitable for three consecutive quarters, helping brands acquire customers more intelligently. Beamable: The infrastructure powering the next generation of live games, giving developers everything they need to build, operate, and scale online experiences. FIRY is publicly traded on the NYSE and headquartered in Las Vegas, with hubs in San Francisco, New York City, and Bengaluru. We’re still early. We’re looking for builders who want to create products that define industries—not simply compete in them. Responsibilities People Business Partnership.

Corporate roles at FIRY do not support one business. They support the infrastructure, strategy, and execution that makes three independent businesses work and compounds as they grow together. Founder‑led. Andrew Paradise founded Skillz in 2012 with a single conviction: that fair, real‑money skill‑based competition should exist at scale. Thirteen years later, he has taken the company public on the NYSE, built a portfolio of three independent businesses, earned 90+ patents, and won the largest false advertising verdict in U.S. history. He is still here, still the founder, still the CEO, still building. That kind of long‑term commitment is rare. At FIRY, it defines the culture from the top down. A portfolio at the beginning of its compounding phase. Four consecutive quarters of sequential revenue growth. Q1 2026 revenue up 33% year‑over‑year. RZR at 120%+ year‑over‑year growth in Q1 2026 and profitable for three consecutive quarters. The flywheel is turning. A mission worth the work. FIRY's mission is to fuel business potential.
