Description

We at PEOPLE HUNT are hiring a Senior Backend Developer on behalf of a fast-scaling iGaming start-up building high-performance, real-time systems. In this role, you’ll design and implement robust backend services that power a next-generation gaming platform. You’ll work across event-driven architectures, scalable data layers, and modern DevOps pipelines to deliver reliable, maintainable APIs and platform functionality optimized for performance and growth. Key Responsibilities Design and develop backend services in Node.js (TypeScript) following clean, modular, and maintainable architecture principles. Build and support REST and WebSocket / real-time APIs. Work with message queues and event streaming systems (pub/sub, streams). Optimize system performance, latency, throughput, and resource usage. Design and maintain SQL/NoSQL databases, caching layers, and replication strategies. Maintain and evolve CI/CD pipelines, automated tests, and enforce high code quality. Collaborate with DevOps on scalability, observability, and deployment processes. Conduct code reviews, mentor teammates, and continuously raise engineering standards. Partner with Product to scope, design, and deliver reliable, high-impact features. What You Bring Strong hands-on experience with Node.js and TypeScript. Experience with NestJS, Express, or Koa (structured framework experience preferred). Proficiency with PostgreSQL / MySQL, Redis, and/or MongoDB. Practical experience with Kafka, RabbitMQ, or NATS for queues and event streaming. Comfortable using Docker, Kubernetes, and GitHub Actions for CI/CD and deployment. Familiarity with monitoring and tracing tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, ELK/OpenSearch, or Sentry. What Makes This Role Unique 🚀 Learn from top-tier founders: work alongside leaders with proven experience in scaling real-time products. 💡 Startup energy, enterprise ambition: fast growth, bold challenges, and genuine ownership. 🧠 Technical autonomy: freedom to design, optimize, and shape architectural decisions. 🔄 No legacy constraints: we iterate, innovate, and continuously improve. 🕓 Flexible full-time setup: core collaboration hours (11:00–16:00 CET), the rest is up to your flow. 🌍 People-first culture: day-off policy that respects real life, not just output. 📈 Room to grow: your scope and ownership expand as the platform and team scale. If you’re passionate about building high-performance backend systems and want to play a key role in powering real-time gaming experiences, this is the opportunity to make a real impact. 📩 Apply now via PEOPLE HUNT and help architect the technology behind the next generation of iGaming platforms.
