Senior Software Engineer (Go)
At BlueLabs we are building a next-generation sports betting platform focused on performance, reliability, modularity and automation. Our technology already powers BetFox, a new sportsbook operator in Ghana, and we plan rolling it out to additional regions in 2022.
To ensure the continuous enhancement of our platform while scaling up operations, we are now looking to grow our distributed team.
The Team
The Account & Betting Team is responsible for the core services powering business-critical functions such as player account management and payments as well as all betting related services such as bet placement and settlement, cash out and risk management.
The services built by our team are to be concurrently used by thousands of users and are expected to be able to handle millions of daily transactions in a timely manner. Sub-second latency is welcomed but high throughput has higher priority. Bet settlement is worth a special mention as our platform needs to be able to quickly evaluate hundreds of thousands of bets upon the resulting of an underlying sporting event.
Raw performance isn't everything. Our team must also ensure that the platform can be easily adapted to be compliant with the different and ever-changing regulatory demands our industry is facing all over the world. The ultimate goal being to ensure a fair and safe sports betting experience to all our players.
We are building a microservice architecture based on event sourcing using Pulsar. Our services are written in Golang and use PostgreSQL as an operational database. We use SemaphoreCI to deploy our services to a GKE cluster, which is provisioned using Terraform.
A good candidate should have high standards for himself, a desire to build high-quality, well-tested, production-ready solutions and constantly improve his/her skills. We expect you to take ownership of some parts of the platform, be proactive over the entire development lifecycle and have the ability to work in a fast-paced environment.
If this sounds scary, don’t worry - you won’t be alone in this. We value teamwork, trust, communication and a healthy working relationship, so you can always count on the team for support.
