Job description
Network Gaming is a rapidly growing innovation company which creates cutting edge sports prediction games for global media brands and a range of other companies.

Having just won our third big contract with News Corp, and launched a new game for brands talkSPORT and Dream Team, the business is scaling fast and planning to launch in the US next year. We need talented Full Stack Developers, or Back-end to support the team and facilitate our next phase of growth.

At the end of June we launched our new game format in house and we are now looking to scale this format and build our core development team. Your goal is to help take ownership of the full stack, manage the platform, pay down any technical debt accrued, and begin building a network of games that engage and convert for our partners. This means creating a stable and scalable architecture, to facilitate the games for a growing list of customers.

Required Experience:

* Minimum 2 years experience developing Golang applications
* Writing production grade API Services
* Working with a PostgreSQL database or equivalent relational DB
* Integrating with and consuming third party APIs (payment, KYC, sports feeds)

Desirable:

* Experienced modern frontend frameworks - AngularJS
* AWS
* Docker
* Agile development methodologies (SCRUM / Kanban)
* Test driven development

Some of our games:

* https://selector.talksport.com/
* https://fantasy.fitzdares.com/
* https://dreamteamselector.com/

We are a small focused team of core developers. We work autonomously, yet collectively, in order to deliver timely value and strategic advantage to the business. Coming onboard as a lead will mean you quickly (after bedding in and learning the ropes) take on epics across the board. These could be integrations with third party services; splitting out new services; new game features; and new games. You will supported in your role by the CTO, Head of Engineering, and the team as a whole.

If you are a seasoned go dev looking for a new challenge in a relaxed (agile startup!) environment, where you size and deliver the work, this is the place for you.
