A taste of what you’ll do

The Middle Backend Developer builds and maintains the backend services that integrate third-party game providers into the platform. The role covers the technical lifecycle of an integration — from provider specification through implementation to production support — and owns the reliability of the services handling game launches, bet and win transactions and provider callbacks. It suits a developer comfortable working against external specifications and third-party systems they don't control.

• Implement and maintain integrations with third-party game providers in PHP/Laravel, working from provider API specifications and integration documents

• Handle game transaction flows — launch, bet, win, rollback, reconciliation

• Design and optimise database schemas and queries in database

• Investigate and resolve integration issues with providers, including direct technical liaison with their engineering contacts

• Investigate and resolve production incidents affecting game availability or player transactions, including participation in the on-call rota

• Write and maintain automated tests, including coverage of provider edge cases and failure modes

• Participate in code review, sprint planning, refinement and retrospectives

• Keep integration documentation current, including provider-specific behaviour and known quirks

• Apply secure development practices and comply with regulatory, licensing and data protection requirements

• Support and mentor junior developers on the team

• Any other task/responsibility which may be related and/or connected to your role as Middle Backend Developer

Who and what we are after?
