DraftKings Employee Perspectives

Employees at DraftKings use AI tools to accelerate learning, quickly gaining new technical skills.

“AI has really accelerated my ability to pick up new frameworks or understand complex concepts. It feels like I have a mentor at my side ready to walk me through tricky logic, help structure my approach, or even sanity-check my thinking in seconds.” — Shreya Thakur, Manager of Risk Analytics

DraftKings uses AI tools like NELLY to streamline onboarding by centralizing internal knowledge, team terminology and best practices for new hires.

“This is helping to get new hires onboarded faster and with a smaller time commitment from tenured team members.” — Claire Van Note, Senior Data Analyst
