Job Description

About the RoleWe’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join a newly forming team that will own one of the most specialised and business-critical domains in our technology landscape – Game Engin

Key Highlights

  • Own, maintain, and evolve Playson’s Game Engine domain
  • Work on internal frameworks and libraries used by mathematicians to implement game logic and mathematical packages.
  • Review and validate code written by mathematicians, ensuring quality, correctness, maintainability, and proper usage of internal frameworks.
  • Contribute to the development and support of game engines used to run mathematical logic within our platform.
  • Support integrations with external game studios by helping build wrappers and bridges between third-party game implementations and Playson’s platform.

Qualifications

Required Qualifications

  • Strong software engineering experience, ideally in backend, game engine, gaming, gambling, betting, or simulation-heavy environments.
  • Solid experience with Node.js/TypeScript, or strong expertise in another OOP language such as C++, Java, C#, Go, or Python.
  • Good understanding of software architecture, code quality, testing, debugging, and maintainability.
  • Experience reviewing complex code and providing clear technical feedback.
  • Ability to understand domain-specific logic and work with technical systems where business rules, mathematics, and engineering are closely connected.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work with complex, non-standard technical challenges.
  • Experience working with production systems where reliability, accuracy, and correctness are critical.
  • Understanding of backend systems, APIs, data flows, and service-to-service communication.
  • Ability to collaborate closely with non-engineering technical experts, especially mathematicians or domain specialists.
  • Strong ownership mindset and willingness to become a key expert in a narrow but highly important technical domain.
  • Product-oriented thinking, with an understanding that games are the core product and engineering decisions directly affect delivery, quality, and compliance.
  • English communication skills sufficient for working in an international environment.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in iGaming, gambling, betting, game development, or casino games.
  • Experience working with game engines, mathematical engines, simulation tools, or game logic frameworks.
  • Background in C++ or experience working with legacy C++ systems.
  • Experience with mathematical models, probability-based systems, simulations, random generators, or RTP-related logic.
  • Understanding of regulated markets and compliance requirements in iGaming.
  • Experience with ClickHouse or other analytical/columnar databases.
  • Experience with monitoring, alerting, and production diagnostics.
  • Experience with AI-assisted code review or automated validation tools.
  • Knowledge of microservices architecture and distributed systems.
  • Familiarity with Kafka, gRPC, Kubernetes, or AWS.
  • Experience integrating third-party games, external studio products, or wrapper-based solutions.
  • Ukrainian language skills would be a plus.
