BUILDING TECHNOLOGY THAT MATTERS.

Everything we do at DICK’S Sporting Goods is about being the leader in sports commerce. The way we will achieve this is by respecting the athlete behind every transaction and providing our knowledge, guidance and expertise.

That means knowing what is most important in every sport. Making it easy for athletes to find the products that they want and need, and providing the tools and insights to help them improve their game. The technologies that we build are critical in accomplishing these goals through non-stop innovation and improvement.

Technology, we use it in our lives every day. It’s part of who we are and how we communicate. Everyone knows the technology helps make our lives easier, but how is it making our lives happier? That’s where we come in. At DICK’S Sporting Goods, we are changing the way we think about develop and deliver technology to the world. And we’ve never been more excited. We are building balanced teams of designers, product managers and engineers in a challenging, supportive environment where the power of their opinion truly matters. We are pushing the boundaries of what we think we can achieve and then making it reality. There is nothing more fulfilling than seeing your passion and hard work making a difference in people’s lives every day. That’s why we are developing technology so you can spend less time on logistics and more time where it matters most. We take pride in seeing the positive impact our technology has on a daily basis for both our teammates and athletes. Because, at DICK’S Sporting Goods, we care about creating happy humans – inside and out.

THIS IS WHAT DRIVES US.

LEAN PRODUCT MANAGEMENT
We validate, launch, measure and improve on an ongoing basis. Each small feature, every little tweak, is weighed against the value it brings to the athletes we serve, and the risk involved. Continuous feedback drives the product build as we seek to add the greatest value.

USER-CENTERED DESIGN
Understanding what athletes want from us is essential to our success. The more we learn about a particular challenge, the better we can solve for that need. We want our software to deliver an experience that is fully immersive, based on our knowledge of what they desire and why.

EXTREME PROGRAMMING (XP)
Our engineers collaborate side by side, in a true meeting of the minds. It’s an opportunity to build with consistent speed and quality in response to changing requirements. We are equal partners, owning our collective code and claiming a stake in achieving measurable outcomes.

PASSION FOR SPORTS
Our technology helps athletes more quickly and easily find the products they need to improve their game and enhance their performance. We believe the power of sports can impact and change lives.
