Senior Backend Engineer
Our partner is a leading B2B iGaming supplier delivering engaging casino content to regulated markets worldwide. Since 2012, they’ve been building high-quality gaming experiences through a modern cloud-native platform that powers hundreds of operator brands across multiple jurisdictions.
Their Platform Solutions team sits at the heart of that ecosystem, enabling seamless integrations between the company, operators, aggregators and platform providers.
Our partner is looking for a Senior Backend Developer who thrives in a deeply hands-on environment and enjoys being close to the code on a daily basis. This role is heavily focused on building, optimising, and scaling backend services in a high-load system where performance and reliability are critical.
You’ll be working on complex, real-time challenges at the core of their platform – improving latency, ensuring high availability, and making systems more efficient at scale. This is not a coordination-heavy role; it’s for someone who enjoys writing production code, solving tough engineering problems, and seeing the direct impact of their work.
