You’ll lead a team of skilled developers, shape our frontend architecture, and ensure every release delivers top-tier visual performance, stability, and player experience.


We’re a team of people who left safe jobs to build something better. No bureaucracy, no pointless meetings — just sharp minds building games that stand out.

  • Define and maintain the frontend architecture and development standards across all game projects;
  • Collaborate with Producers, Artists, and Backend Engineers to ensure seamless integration and optimized performance;
  • Oversee code quality and reviews to keep our codebases scalable, maintainable, and reusable;
  • Improve our core framework, build tools, and asset pipelines;
  • Contribute to the design and implementation of new features, UI components, and in-game effects;
  • Support onboarding and growth of developers through documentation, knowledge-sharing, and mentorship;
  • Stay up to date with modern frontend technologies and trends in the iGaming ecosystem.


🧠 What you bring

  • 5+ years of experience in frontend game development, including 2+ years in a lead or senior role;
  • Strong expertise with Pixi.js and modern JavaScript / TypeScript;
  • Solid understanding of OOP, asynchronous programming, and rendering performance optimization;
  • Hands-on experience shipping HTML5 slot or casino games from concept to production;
  • Familiarity with Spine animations and asset management pipelines;
  • Experience building or improving internal tools or frameworks for dev teams;
  • Excellent communication and leadership skills — able to align teams, set priorities, and drive delivery;
  • Fluency in English.

 

💎 Nice to have

  • Experience with build automation, CI/CD pipelines, or process optimization tools;
  • Knowledge of performance profiling and debugging across platforms (desktop, mobile, WebGL);
  • Familiarity with iGaming specifics: RNG logic, platform workflow, integrations.
