  • Manage data persistence and complex queries using Prisma as our primary ORM, interacting with PostgreSQL and other databases to ensure data integrity and performance.
  • Deploy and manage applications using containerization (Docker) and orchestration (Kubernetes) technologies within our AWS cloud environment, ensuring high availability and scalability.
  • Collaborate closely with front-end developers, product managers, and game development engineers to define and deliver robust backend solutions for new features, including player account management, transaction processing, and bonus systems.
  • Champion best practices in code quality, automated testing, and CI/CD pipelines to ensure the reliability and security of the platform.
  • Optimize system performance by identifying and resolving bottlenecks, reducing latency, and ensuring our infrastructure can handle a global, high-concurrency user base.
  • Contribute to the evolution of our technical roadmap, evaluating and adopting new technologies to keep our platform at the cutting edge.
  • 4+ years of professional experience in backend development, with a proven track record of designing and building large-scale, distributed systems.
  • Expert-level proficiency in TypeScript and Node.js.
  • Significant hands-on experience with the Nest.js framework for building scalable and maintainable backend applications.
  • Strong experience with modern ORMs, specifically Prisma.
  • Demonstrable experience with microservices architectures, including containerization with Docker and orchestration with Kubernetes.
  • Proficiency in deploying and managing services on cloud platforms, particularly AWS (e.g., EKS, S3, RDS).
  • Solid understanding of database solutions (SQL/NoSQL), such as PostgreSQL or Redis.
  • Familiarity with fintech, compliance, security or similar specializations and niches
  • Experience building and consuming RESTful and WebSocket APIs.
  • A proactive and collaborative mindset, with excellent problem-solving skills and experience working in an agile environment.
