Summary

# Senior Frontend / Full-Stack Developer – iGaming We're looking for a talented developer to join our growing team and help build a live iGaming product that is already serving active users. We soft-launched one month ago and are now building out our core product and engineering team from the ground up. This is a frontend-heavy role for someone who loves building polished, highly interactive gaming experiences. While full-stack experience is valuable, we're primarily looking for an engineer with strong frontend skills, a great eye for UI/UX, and experience building real-time gaming products. ## What You'll Be Working On You'll be responsible for developing and maintaining our portfolio of in-house casino games while owning the frontend development lifecycle from staging through production. You'll work extensively with technologies and libraries such as: * React / Next.js * JavaScript (ES6+) * Node.js * Framer Motion * GSAP * Howler.js * Socket.io You will build engaging real-time gaming experiences, including game types such as: * Case Battles * Case Opening * Plinko * Mines * Crash * Tower * And other custom game concepts ## Beyond Game Development When not building new games, you'll help improve and refine the broader product experience, including: * UI/UX improvements * Onboarding funnel optimisation * Animation and interaction polish * Design system / UI kit development * Performance optimisation * Reward and progression systems * Feature iteration and experimentation We're looking for someone who genuinely cares about the details. Small animations, transitions, sound design, responsiveness and overall player experience matter to us. ## What We're Looking For * Previous experience working in the iGaming industry * Experience building or contributing to in-house casino-style games * Strong frontend development skills and attention to detail * A good eye for design, animation and user experience * Ability to work independently and take ownership of features from concept to deployment * Comfortable operating in a fast-moving startup environment * Strong communication skills and ability to manage your own workload We value developers who don't just write code. We want someone who actively studies competitors, analyses successful gaming products, and brings new ideas that improve the player experience. ## Nice to Have * Experience with provably fair systems * Experience building real-time multiplayer features * Experience with crypto, Web3, skins or adjacent gaming products * Previous startup experience ## To Apply Please include: * Details of your iGaming experience * Examples of games you've built or contributed to * Links to live products (if available) * Your availability and weekly capacity * Your hourly or monthly rate Applications without relevant iGaming experience are unlikely to be considered. We're looking for someone who wants to help build a category-leading gaming product, not just complete tickets.
