Our mission is simple yet ambitious: to deliver seamless, 24/7 digital sports and gaming experiences that bring people closer to the games they love, online and offline.

The Role:

As a Mid-Level Backend Software Engineer, you'll join our iGaming domain (Virtuals Squad) and play a key role at the heart of our engineering team. You'll drive backend initiatives, building robust and scalable solutions, and contribute to system architecture, technical decision-making, and product innovation, ensuring our technology stack evolves efficiently to meet business needs.

We're looking for engineers who love to build, test, and optimize. If you thrive in a high-impact environment, enjoy working autonomously while collaborating with cross-functional teams, and are passionate about crafting elegant and maintainable software, we'd love to hear from you.

What you'll be doing:

Core Engineering

  • Develop, test, and maintain high-quality, scalable backend services.
  • Collaborate with backend engineers on design, approaches, and code reviews.
  • Write optimized, secure code with strong focus on testing and reliability.
  • Contribute to system design and architecture decisions.

Collaboration

  • Work closely with cross-functional teams, including product managers and designers.
  • Participate in planning sessions, providing technical input into the roadmap.
  • Share knowledge, participate in code reviews, and promote best practices.

Ownership & Growth

  • Take initiative in learning the domain and proactively contributing beyond assigned tasks.
  • Drive continuous improvement in pipelines, system performance, and observability.
  • Support and mentor peers, contributing to a culture of excellence.

Requirements

Technical Skills & Experience

  • 3+ years of professional experience in software development.
  • Proficiency in C# and .NET framework.
  • Experience with relational databases (MS SQL Server) and NoSQL databases (e.g., MongoDB, Redis).
  • Strong knowledge of microservices architecture and domain-driven design.
  • Understanding of modern DevOps practices, including CI/CD pipelines and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform).
  • Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (preferably Microsoft Azure).
  • Familiarity with containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes, AKS).
  • Experience with message queuing systems (RabbitMQ) and event streaming platforms (Kafka).
  • Strong focus on code quality, testing methodologies, and software engineering best practices.
  • Knowledge of performance optimization strategies, caching techniques, and observability tools (Grafana, APM solutions).
  • Security-conscious approach to software development.

Soft Skills & Mindset

  • Passion for problem-solving and building scalable solutions.
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced, dynamic environment and adapt quickly.
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly.
  • A growth mindset with a passion for continuous learning and improvement.
  • A team player who values collaboration, feedback, and knowledge sharing.

Nice to Have

  • Experience in the iGaming or sports betting industry.
  • Knowledge of regulatory requirements and compliance standards.
  • Experience working in a hyper-growth startup environment.

  • Customer Focus: We keep the customer at the center of everything we do.

  • Openness, Honesty & Directness: We embrace a culture of candor and work together towards the right solution whilst being open, honest, and willing to give and receive feedback, judgment-free. We play the ball, not the person.
