Description
**About the Role**
We are looking for a Backend Engineer to join our engineering team and grow alongside the systems that power our core product. We develop white label iGaming platforms powered by a scalable microservices architecture, handling thousands of concurrent users and real-time gaming operations. This is an exciting opportunity to work on meaningful, production-grade software from day one.
We are looking for someone who brings genuine hands-on experience, a hunger to keep learning, and a clear ambition to grow into a senior engineering role. You will be supported by experienced engineers and given increasing responsibility as your skills develop. If you take pride in your craft and want a clear path to seniority, this role is for you.
## Tasks
**Key Responsibilities**
- Build and maintain backend services and APIs using .NET, working within an established microservices architecture. Write clean, well-tested, and well-documented code that meets team standards and is ready for code review.
- Collaborate with senior engineers and product teams to understand requirements and deliver reliable solutions. Participate actively in code reviews, both as a reviewer and a reviewee, to accelerate your own learning and contribute to team quality.
- Engage in debugging and troubleshooting production issues, building a thorough understanding of how our systems behave under real-world conditions. Take ownership of smaller features and incremental improvements end-to-end.
- Invest in your own development by seeking feedback, asking questions, and actively working towards greater technical independence. Contribute to a positive team culture where knowledge sharing and continuous improvement are valued.
## Requirements
**Requirements**
- 2–4 years of professional backend experience with .NET 6 onwards
- Familiarity with building or consuming RESTful and gRPC APIs with an understanding of API design fundamentals
- Working knowledge of relational databases (PostgreSQL or MySQL) and basic query optimisation
- Understanding of version control with Git, including branching strategies and pull request workflows
- Awareness of CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices
- Exposure to cloud environments, ideally AWS, and a willingness to deepen that knowledge over time
- A genuine interest in backend systems, distributed architecture, and how scalable platforms are built
- Strong communication skills and a proactive attitude — you ask questions, flag blockers early, and take ownership of your work
- A clear ambition to progress to a senior engineering role, with the drive and work ethic to get there
**Nice to Have**
Experience with React for internal backoffice tools, familiarity with Kubernetes. Some experience with testing frameworks such as xUnit. Prior experience working in an agile team environment.
