You will join one of our established high‑performing teams within the Betting division, as we invest in our core and future Betting products. You will be focusing on the delivery of technical and product‑focused initiatives to expand and scale up our industry’s leading Sports book and Risk Management products.

One example is our Advanced Risk team, who were set up to challenge conventional wisdom about risk management for sports betting operators. Using new measures of liability that take account of correlations between different markets on an event, and by monitoring betting patterns from the moment an event is opened for betting, we apply margins asymmetrically in a way that helps operators to make higher profit margins, reduce volatility and improve customer experience with greater uptime and fewer rejected bets.

Our software provides customers with a new level of flexibility over the way they manage their Sports books to meet their financial objectives. Smart algorithms allow decisions about bets to be taken quickly at scale while enabling close control when desired, reminiscent of earlier days of sports betting.

Join a specially formed, highly skilled team delivering an innovative & intelligent product! Forming part of a multi‑disciplinary Agile team of Software Engineers, Data Scientists, QA Engineers and a Product Manager, you will look to work closely to the fundamental principles of continuous delivery and empowered, high‑performing teams.

We operate in a squad model to allow focus on the business top priorities, allowing exposure across multiple products while still maintaining strong ownership of your team’s domain.

If you are looking to tackle hard problems with smart solutions, collaborate with astute engineers and deliver high‑calibre code with an autonomous & performance focused approach that supports success, delivery & quality, then this is for you.

As a Senior Software Engineer 1 (SR1) you and your team will build highly distributed, real‑time, dynamically scaling systems using modern CI/CD pipelines & cloud infrastructure.
