Junior Fullstack Developer (React, Node.js, Next.js)

Sportserve forms part of a remarkable group of B2C sports betting and B2B sportsbook technology companies, focused on delivering first class sports betting experiences and casino products for our users worldwide. Along with Sportion, TechSpirit, Standard Focus and Sportelligent, we are the driving force behind the world renowned sports betting company and our flagship brand, Dafabet.
Since launching our global hiring initiative, we now employ over 2,000 people worldwide, offering exciting career paths in Technology, Trading, Operations and Media. We pride ourselves on having a diverse and international culture that embraces the global community and acts locally. We offer office based, hybrid and remote work on permanent and consultancy contracts all over the world, making us the true global employer of choice.
When it comes to being successful at Sportserve, there’s more to it than just being really good at the technical stuff. It’s also your ability to be an awesome problem solver. And here’s the thing, we totally get that we can’t all be experts in everything, right? So, it’s all about having that thirst for knowledge and being passionate about learning. You’ll also need amazing attention to detail, so if something seems off, you won’t rest until you’ve figured out what’s going on. We see ourselves as a cool group of people who love coming up with new ideas and making things happen. As long as you have a true passion for creating awesome stuff, you’ll fit right in.
What you will be getting up to:
We are looking for someone to work closely with our product owners to help shape and build the future of our Marketing ecosystem for the leading online gambling operator in Asia.
Key Responsibilities
You’d spend most of your time developing new exciting projects, for example:

Building a new back-office application from scratch

Building a new front-facing application from scratch

Taking part in new payment provider integrations

We’d also do a ton of work together like:

Architecting and developing new features

Prototyping and evaluating potential implementations

Meeting business stakeholders to understand the problems they wish to address

You would spend a lot of time programming, brainstorming on challenging problems and prototyping different ideas. You wouldn’t be just churning through tickets in the backlog — you’d be helping to design entirely new products, figuring out what exactly we’re even building and why.
While being a somewhat big company, we’re split into small teams which means that even though we each have our areas of expertise, we all wear many hats. We’re looking for a programmer, but you’d also help out with things like:

Writing and improving the documentation for the products and tools we make

Helping customer support answer customer questions

Maintaining the ownership of our product

Assisting in troubleshooting production incidents

Take part in OOH on-call application support rota

If you’ve ever maintained a large project, working with us carries a lot of the same responsibilities.

More important than specific technical skills though is that you’re a strong problem solver who loves to learn — we’re not experts in everything and we don’t expect you to be either..
You know great architecture and design when you see it and you know when something isn’t up to par. Details matter to you, and if something is off — you will go to the end of the universe to figure out why. We just care about what you can do and how you do it. We’re all just makers and tinkerers, so as long as you love to build awesome stuff you’ll fit right in.
**We warmly invite applications in English.
