• Actively contributing to peer reviews and mentoring junior developers.
• Continuously learning and sharing knowledge across the team.

We’re looking for someone with solid technical skills, a collaborative mindset, and a passion for clean, efficient code. For this role, Scala development experience is essential.

You’ll also bring:

• Strong experience in test‑driven, functional development using Scala.
• Familiarity with Typelevel frameworks (Cats, Cats Effect, http4s, fs2).
• Experience with SQL and NoSQL databases.
• Understanding of software architecture, requirements engineering, and UML.
• Comfort working with Linux and the network stack for service hosting.
• Knowledge of algorithmic complexity and performance tuning.
• Experience with tools like Confluence, JIRA, and Kanban methodology.
• A logical, structured approach to problem‑solving.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work in a fast‑paced environment.

• Exposure to sports data or betting systems.
• Interest in applied mathematics and emerging technologies.
• Experience in team management or mentoring.

You’ll be joining a dynamic, fast‑paced team in a business that values innovation, simplicity, and collaboration. You’ll be part of a company that prioritises technical excellence, continuous learning, and meaningful impact.

Here’s what you can expect from our process:

• An initial call with our Talent Partner

• Two rounds of interviews with various stakeholders and leaders, with at least one stage taking place in our London office (ideally both, if possible)
