Diversified tribal enterprise spanning gaming, hospitality, healthcare, and defense
Cherokee Nation Businesses operates across seven major verticals—gaming, hospitality, healthcare, construction, manufacturing, real estate, and defense—making it a conglomerate rather than a single-purpose tech company. The hiring mix is heavily operations-focused (74 of 102 active roles), with secondary emphasis on security (14 roles), reflecting the operational complexity of managing high-volume guest-facing venues and cash-handling infrastructure. Active projects cluster around gaming and hospitality operations: loyalty programs, VIP event planning, valet flow optimization, and CRM enhancements—signaling operational maturity challenges in a multi-site, high-traffic environment.
Notable leadership hires: Table Games Lead, Dual Rate Lead
