About FIG IQ

FIG IQ is a US-headquartered sports intelligence startup, based in Texas, building live systems for moments that cannot pause. We work at the intersection of sport, broadcast, design, and real-time decision-making. Cricket is one of the most demanding live environments in the world, and we are building graphics systems that stay calm, accurate, and reliable under pressure. This role sits at the core of our cricket graphics capability and is part of FIG IQs first senior technical hiring wave.

The Role

We are hiring Lead / Principal Vizrt DesignerDevelopers to personally design, build, and own cricket broadcast graphics systems used in live matches. We are open to multiple senior profiles. Scope and mandate will be shaped around what you can personally own and build. This is a hands-on leadership role with deep ownership of live systems. You will not just define standards. You will implement them yourself, including templates, logic, data bindings, and operator guardrails. This is a build-once, reuse-all-season responsibility.

What You Will Personally Build

Graphics System Design

Design complete cricket broadcast graphics packages in Viz Artist, including:

• Scorebug
• Player cards (batting and bowling)
• Over summaries
• Innings and result graphics

Ensure layouts follow cricket broadcast conventions

Build templates that are clean, reusable, and operator-safe

Cricket Logic and Data Integration

Bind graphics to scoring and data feeds (manual or semi-automated)

Own cricket-specific logic, including:

• Overs vs balls
• Extras
• Strike changes
• Innings transitions

Implement guardrails so operators cannot break graphics on air

System Readiness

Prepare Viz templates for fast, error-resistant playout

Conduct:

• Pre-season testing
• Match simulations

Support operators during early matches if needed

What Makes This a Lead or Principal Role

• You are the technical authority for cricket graphics at FIG IQ
• You set logic discipline and template standards
• As the team grows, you help guide other designers and developers while remaining hands-on

What we're Looking For

• Strong, hands-on experience with Viz Artist in live broadcast environments
• Working knowledge of Viz Trio workflows
• Comfort with scripting and logic (Viz scripting, Lua, Python, or similar)
• Deep understanding of cricket rules and live broadcast flow

Nice to Have

• Prior experience building cricket broadcast graphics
• Vizrt certification
• Experience with regional or international leagues
• Exposure to remote or cloud-based production

Why This Role Matters

• Operators require minimal support during live matches
• Graphics remain stable and consistent across the season
• Broadcast output stays calm, credible, and professional under live match pressure

Startup Culture

• Small team, high ownership
• Builders over managers
• Calm thinking under pressure over flashy demos
• Systems that work live matter more than slides
