Role Description

OP is partnering with a fast-growing iGaming startup to hire talented individuals building the next generation of sweepstakes-based gaming experiences. Operating at the intersection of gaming, technology, and user engagement, the platform enables seamless cross-game interactions powered by innovative mechanics. With plans to rapidly scale this year, the team is seeking builders who thrive in fast-paced environments where ideas move from concept to live product in weeks.

Qualifications

5+ years designing, building, and scaling backend services powering gameplay, wallets, payments, promotions, and player account management using TypeScript + Node.js (Bonus: NestJS, Express).
Proven ability to design scalable, reliable systems.
Solid database skills (especially PostgreSQL).
Security-first mindset with attention to data integrity and traceability.
Comfortable working autonomously in a startup environment.
Experience working in Agile/Scrum environments.

Requirements

Architect API-first, microservice-oriented systems that are modular, resilient, and independently deployable.
Build and maintain reliable REST/GraphQL APIs and third-party integrations (payments, KYC/identity, fraud, analytics).
Own backend features end-to-end—from design and implementation through production rollout and operational support.
Comfort developing and scaling systems that may operate across on-prem and cloud environments.
Experience with transactional, audit-friendly systems is highly valued.
Implement secure, audit-friendly transaction processing for deposits, withdrawals, bonuses, and settlement workflows.
Ensure consistency and traceability across high-volume financial operations and asynchronous workflows.
Collaborate with AppSec and compliance partners to meet PCI DSS expectations around access control, data handling, logging, and vulnerability remediation.
Hands-on experience using AI platforms to accelerate development and testing.

Benefits

100% medical, dental & vision coverage (partial for dependents).
401(k) employer match.
