About us
We are a product R&D company that creates solutions for the dynamic iGaming ecosystem. Our mission is to build cutting-edge platforms that reinvent the iGaming industry.
About the team
We are a focused engineering team of 5 to 9 people at a multi-product tech SaaS company. We work across personalization, recommendation, fraud detection, and some GenAI, through real- time, near-real-time, and batch pipelines. The team is a blend of Python backend engineers, ML engineers, QA (manual and automation), a data engineer, and data scientists. Our shared mandate is to take experimentation from our data scientists and turn it into robust, production- grade systems, either as standalone services or integrated into wider platforms.
The role
You will build and operate production backend systems alongside senior engineers and a hands- on engineering manager, owning your work end to end and growing into the harder problems.
The systems you work on are either part of a larger SaaS backend or run as standalone services:
batch and event-driven pipelines, stream consumers, feature stores, REST APIs, scheduled jobs and background workers.
Responsibilities
- Design and build production Python services: APIs, stream consumers, pipelines, feature stores, scheduled jobs, background workers
- Write and tune the SQL and schemas these services depend on
- Uphold engineering standards: code quality, testing, observability, deployment discipline
- Productionize data scientists' experimentation into reliable services
- Diagnose and fix problems in production
- Contribute to design discussions and the implementation approach for the systems you work on
- Review code and help raise the bar for what the team ships
- Take part in the team's on-call rotation for the systems you build and operate
Requirements
- 3+ years of backend engineering experience
- Strong Python: async, data processing, and working with Redis, Kafka and database clients
- Deep database skills — non-trivial SQL, query plans, index design, transactions and isolation levels, and concurrency
- Experience across relational and non-relational stores, and when to choose which
- Good working knowledge of Docker and CI/CD, enough to partner well with DevOps
- Experience owning a service in production
Nice to have
- Graph databases (Neo4j or similar)
- PostgreSQL internals: MVCC, autovacuum and bloat, partitioning, connection pooling
- PySpark, Databricks
- Kubernetes
- Experience building LLM-powered systems, including the vector stores behind them
- Fraud detection, recsys, or personalization systems experience
- Prometheus and Grafana
- SaaS or high-scale product domain experience
