Hiring: Part-Time Full Stack Developer for Next-Gen Sports Betting Platform

The online gambling and sports betting industry is experiencing exponential growth, driven by technological advancements and shifting regulatory landscapes. To stay ahead of the curve, we are actively seeking a talented Part-Time Full Stack Developer to join our technical team. This contract-based role is designed for a software engineer who possesses a deep understanding of web application architecture and a passion for building high-performance, real-time systems.

The Role: Engineering the Future of Sports Betting

As a Full Stack Developer on this project, you will play a pivotal role in the design, development, and continuous enhancement of a comprehensive sports betting platform. Unlike standard e-commerce or content sites, a betting platform requires extreme precision, low latency, and unwavering stability. Your primary focus will be constructing a scalable, secure, and data-driven ecosystem that creates a seamless experience for end-users while ensuring robust backend operations.

Key Responsibilities and Technical Challenges

This position offers a unique opportunity to apply software engineering principles to complex, real-world challenges. The core responsibilities include:

• Real-Time System Architecture: You will build systems capable of handling high-frequency data updates. Sports betting relies on live odds that change in milliseconds. Implementing technologies like WebSockets or Server-Sent Events (SSE) to ensure users see real-time updates without page reloads is essential.
• Third-Party API Integration: The platform relies on a network of external data providers for match statistics, live scores, and dynamic odds. You will be responsible for integrating these disparate APIs into a unified internal model. Furthermore, secure integration with payment gateways (Fiat and potentially Crypto) is critical for handling deposits and withdrawals.
• Scalability and Database Management: As user traffic spikes during major sporting events, the system must remain responsive. You will design database schemas that support rapid read/write operations, utilizing technologies like Redis for caching and PostgreSQL or NoSQL solutions for persistent storage.
• Security and Compliance: In the regulated world of sports betting, security is not optional. You will implement robust user account management systems, including Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), Know Your Customer (KYC) verification workflows, and anti-money laundering (AML) protocols.

Ideal Candidate Profile

We are looking for a developer who combines academic rigor with practical application. The ideal candidate will have:

• Strong Academic or Professional Grounding: A solid foundation in computer science concepts, algorithms, and data structures is vital for optimizing code performance.
• Full Stack Proficiency: Experience with modern frontend frameworks (such as React, Vue.js, or Angular) and backend environments (Node.js, Python, or Go).
• Attention to Detail: In a transactional environment where money is at stake, code quality and testing are paramount.

This part-time, contract role is perfect for a professional looking to make a significant impact on a high-growth product while maintaining flexibility. If you are ready to tackle the challenges of real-time data and high-availability architecture, we want to hear from you.
