The role

Job description

GR8_TECH builds B2B iGaming platforms for operators who play to lead.

We deliver full-cycle, high-impact tech designed to scale - from seamless integrations and expert consulting to long-term operational support. Our platform powers millions of active players and drives real business growth. Call it what it is: the iGaming Platform for Champions.

With 1000+ GR8 people across locations and time zones, we don't just ship technology - we help operators build success stories across brands, markets, and geos.

Our ambition drives us. Our people make it real.

If you're a challenger in spirit and a champion in action - join us.

Why this role exists:

This role exists to design, build, and maintain backend services across the Casino platform - bonus and promotional mechanics, wallet and transaction flows, game launch and catalog, and game provider integrations - ensuring reliability, correctness, and performance under high load.

Casino platform services

  • Design and develop Spring Boot microservices across the casino domain: bonus processing, game launch, lobby and game catalog management.
  • Implement and evolve promotional mechanics end-to-end - from bonus crediting and wagering logic to expiry and settlement - with correctness guarantees on real money.
  • Integrate third-party game providers, game launch, wallet callbacks (bet/win/refund), provider-side bonus features.
  • Build and evolve REST APIs consumed by internal services and external providers, including request signing, authentication, and API versioning.

Reliability & correctness

  • Ensure correctness of real-money transaction and bonus flows - idempotency, retries, timeouts, graceful degradation of downstream calls.
  • Work with Redis for caching and session state; tune service performance under production load.
  • Own observability: metrics (Micrometer/Prometheus, Grafana dashboards), structured logging, alerting.

Quality & delivery

  • Write and maintain unit, integration, and functional tests (JUnit 5, Testcontainers).
  • Ship via GitLab CI to Kubernetes; participate in code review and incident investigation.

Must-have

  • 5+ years of experience in back end.
  • Commercial experience with strong proficiency in Java (17+) and Spring Boot 3.x (Web, Security, Data, Actuator).
  • Experience building business-critical domain logic (payments, bonuses, billing, or similar money-adjacent flows).
  • Solid experience integrating third-party REST APIs and designing your own.
  • Understanding of distributed systems basics: idempotency, consistency, timeouts, retries, caching.
  • Experience with SQL and at least one NoSQL store (Redis, Cassandra, or Elasticsearch).
  • Upper-intermediate or higher level of English.

Nice-to-have

  • Scala experience (parts of our wallet platform run on Scala / Play / Akka).
  • Experience with Kafka and event-driven architectures (some of our services use Spring Cloud Stream).
  • Experience running services on Kubernetes; familiarity with GitLab CI.
  • Familiarity with Prometheus and Grafana.
  • iGaming / betting domain experience.

Why you'll love working here:

Benefits Cafeteria - annual budget you allocate to:

Sports • Medical • Mental health • Home office • Languages.

Work-life & support

  • Paid maternity/paternity leave + monthly childcare allowance.
  • 20+ vacation days, unlimited sick leave, emergency time off.
  • Remote-first + tech support + coworking compensation.
  • Team events (online/offline/offsite).
  • Learning culture with internal courses + growth programs.
