PMU operates France's largest mutual betting network—10.5B€ in annual wagers across 12,000 physical points of sale and 5.5M online accounts—while managing operational complexity across horse racing, sports betting, and poker verticals. The tech stack (Dataiku, Python, SQL, PyTorch) combined with active projects in risk scoring, customer segmentation, and compliance automation reveals an organization investing in data-driven decision-making and regulatory tightening, though hiring velocity remains steady and concentrated in France.
