Mid-Senior Backend Engineer @ Casino Gaming Startup | Series A | $140-160K Base

Location: Remote (US-based, must be available for 9:30am ET standup)

Compensation: $145,000–$160,000 base + equity

Experience Level: 5+ years professional experience required

Our client is a fast-growing, venture-backed gaming startup operating at the intersection of real-money gaming and the creator economy. With a core product already in market and generating significant revenue, they're expanding their engineering team to meet demand and build out the next generation of features.

This is a high-stakes, high-impact opportunity to work on a social casino product used by thousands of players around the clock. The founding team is composed of seasoned entrepreneurs and engineers with backgrounds in crypto, gaming, and consumer tech — and they’re backed by top-tier investors.

This is not your average backend engineering role. You’ll join a small, elite team building infrastructure that must perform at scale and handle real-money transactions with zero room for error. The ideal candidate is a pragmatic builder who enjoys solving hard backend problems, thrives in high-trust environments, and wants to own critical parts of a fast-moving system.

You’ll work across a variety of areas — from scaling APIs and architecting new features to integrating gaming vendors and optimizing database performance. No red tape, just great engineering and high-impact work.

Note: This role is only open to candidates based in the U.S. at this time. Sponsorship is not available. Must be available for standup at 9:30 AM EST.
