Role Description

• This is a full-time hybrid role for a Senior Frontend Developer, based in Lagos — hybrid, with 3 days per week in the office. You'll build the web experience where customers browse live odds, build bet slips, follow and copy other bettors, and move money — all updating in real time, all needing to feel instant on mid-range devices over inconsistent networks. Our web stack is React and Next.js against a BFF layer. This is a hands-on role for a frontend engineer who cares about performance as much as pixels, and who understands that in betting, a laggy odds update or a double-submitted bet slip is a real problem, not a polish issue.What You'll Do
• Build and own core web experiences in React/Next.js: sportsbook browsing, bet slip, wallet, account, and social/copy-betting features
• Implement real-time UI — live odds updates, in-play markets, and cash-out values — over WebSockets with graceful degradation
• Engineer for performance on the devices and networks our customers actually use: bundle discipline, lazy loading, and aggressive optimisation of Core Web Vitals
• Handle the hard frontend states well: optimistic updates, retries, idempotent submissions, offline/reconnect behaviour
• Collaborate with design to ship polished, responsive interfaces, and with backend engineers on clean BFF contracts
• Write well-tested code (unit, integration, and E2E) and participate in code reviews
• Instrument the frontend with analytics and error monitoring, and use the data to drive improvements
• Uphold accessibility and responsible gambling UI requirements across the product
• Mentor mid-level frontend engineers and help set standards for the frontend codebase

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years of frontend engineering experience with deep, current expertise in React and TypeScript
• Strong production experience with Next.js (SSR/ISR, routing, performance patterns)
• Proven experience building real-time interfaces (WebSockets, SSE) and managing complex client state
• A demonstrated performance mindset — you can talk concretely about how you've made a slow app fast
• Solid testing habits with tools like Jest, React Testing Library, Playwright, or Cypress
• Good grasp of web security fundamentals for applications that handle money
• Strong collaboration with designers and backend engineers
• A portfolio, live product, or GitHub work you're proud to walk us through

Nice to Have

• Experience building betting, trading, gaming, or fintech interfaces
• Experience shipping web products for African markets and low-bandwidth conditions
• Familiarity with design systems and component library ownership
• Exposure to A/B testing and growth experimentation tooling

Role Description

• This is a full-time hybrid role for a Principal Backend Engineer, based in Lagos — hybrid, with 3 days per week in the office. You'll be the most senior individual contributor on the backend, owning the architecture of a platform where real money moves through real-time systems: wallet and ledger, bet engine, live betting, settlement, copy-betting, and social infrastructure. You'll set the technical direction, make the decisions that are expensive to reverse, and remain hands-on in the code. This is a role for an engineer who has built and operated serious distributed systems at scale and wants their architectural judgement to shape a platform from its foundations.

What You'll Do

• Own the backend architecture across .NET 8+, PostgreSQL, Redis, Kafka, and AWS/EKS
• Design the systems that must never be wrong: double-entry wallet ledger, bet placement and settlement, cash-out, and payment flows
• Set standards for event-driven design, idempotency, consistency, and failure handling across all services
• Lead the hardest technical work personally — the highest-risk integrations, the trickiest concurrency problems, the performance bottlenecks
• Run architecture and design reviews, and mentor senior engineers into stronger system designers
• Define non-functional requirements — latency budgets, availability targets, capacity plans for peak fixtures — and drive the platform to meet them
• Own observability, incident response practices, and post-mortem culture across backend services
• Evaluate build-vs-buy decisions and third-party providers (trading feeds, payments, fraud, KYC) with commercial as well as technical judgement
• Work directly with the founders and Head of Engineering on the technical roadmap

What We're Looking For

• 8+ years of backend engineering experience, with several years operating at staff/principal level
• Deep, current expertise in C# / .NET and the surrounding ecosystem
• A proven track record architecting distributed, event-driven systems in production — ideally where money, trades, or bets flowed through them
• Expert-level understanding of data consistency, transactions, idempotency, and exactly-once processing
• Strong production experience with PostgreSQL, Redis, Kafka, and AWS; Kubernetes/EKS strongly preferred
• Demonstrated ability to lead through influence: design docs, reviews, and mentorship rather than authority
• Sound judgement on trade-offs — you know when to be rigorous and when to ship
• Excellent written and verbal communication with technical and non-technical audiences

Nice to Have

• Experience in sportsbook, gaming, trading, or payments platforms specifically
• Experience integrating managed trading/odds providers
• Prior experience as an early or founding engineer at a startup
• Exposure to regulatory or audit requirements in a licensed industry

Role Description

• This is a full-time role for an Executive Assistant supporting the CEO and COO, based in Ikeja, Lagos, Nigeria. This is far more than diary management: you'll run the operational engine around both founders — calendars, correspondence, travel, meetings, vendors, office administration, events, procurement and a steady stream of projects that don't fit neatly anywhere else. In a startup moving at launch speed, you'll be the person who makes sure nothing falls through the cracks. This is a high-trust role for someone exceptionally organised, resourceful, and unflappable — you'll see sensitive commercial information daily and be expected to handle it with total discretion.

What You'll Do

• Manage both executives' calendars: scheduling, prioritisation, conflict resolution, and protecting focus time across two demanding diaries
• Coordinate meetings across Nigeria, UK, and European time zones with partners, regulators, advisors, and vendors
• Prepare meeting agendas, briefing notes, and follow-up action trackers — and chase owners until items close
• Manage travel end to end for both executives: flights, visas, accommodation, and itineraries
• Draft, proofread, and manage correspondence on behalf of the CEO and COO
• Run day-to-day office administration: supplies, facilities, equipment, and front-of-house coordination
• Manage vendors, procurement and service providers — sourcing quotes, negotiating, tracking contracts and renewals, and chasing deliverables
• Handle expense reporting, invoice tracking, petty cash, and document filing for the executive office
• Coordinate board meetings, leadership offsites, team events, and company celebrations
• Support recruitment logistics: interview scheduling, candidate communication, and onboarding coordination alongside HR
• Take on ad-hoc projects and errands as directed — research, vendor comparisons, document preparation, deliveries, and whatever the day demands
• Act as a professional first point of contact for external stakeholders reaching either executive
• Maintain strict confidentiality across all commercial, legal, and personnel matters

What We're Looking For

• 3+ years of experience as an Executive Assistant, Personal Assistant, or office manager supporting senior executives — supporting more than one principal is a strong advantage
• Exceptional organisational skills and attention to detail, with a strategic, big-picture mindset and a track record of juggling competing priorities across multiple stakeholders without dropping anything
• Excellent written and spoken English, both in person and online: clear, professional, and confident in representing someone else's voice
• Proficiency with Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, with strong Excel skills (formulas, data handling, clean formatting) being essential, and comfort learning new tools quickly
• Proactive, resourceful, and hands-on: you anticipate needs, spot problems early, work through ambiguity, and act without waiting to be asked
• A fast learner with strong research skills and a multidisciplinary mind — comfortable picking up unfamiliar subjects quickly and operating independently with minimal oversight
• Absolute discretion, trustworthiness, and professional maturity in handling confidential and personal matters
• Calm, structured execution under pressure, shifting priorities, and two sets of demands
• Availability for flexibility outside standard hours when critical matters demand it
• A Bachelor's degree in any discipline

Nice to Have

• Experience supporting founders or C-suite in a startup or high-growth environment
• A background or qualification in finance or legal disciplines
• Office management or operations experience alongside EA duties
• Exposure to a regulated industry (gaming, financial services) and formal stakeholder correspondence
• Experience coordinating international travel and visa processes
• Basic project management skills (Notion, Asana, Trello, or similar)
• Event planning experience
• Creativity, and interest in social media

Role Description

• This is a full-time hybrid role for a Senior Reconciliation Officer, based in Lagos — hybrid, with 3 days per week in the office. In a betting business, money moves constantly — deposits in, withdrawals out, bets, winnings, bonuses, and fees — across multiple payment providers and bank accounts. Your job is to prove, daily, that every naira is accounted for: platform wallet balances versus payment gateway records versus bank statements. Discrepancies are found fast, investigated to root cause, and closed. This is a detail-obsessed role for someone with strong reconciliation experience in a high-volume transaction environment, who treats an unexplained variance as unacceptable rather than tolerable.

What You'll Do

• Perform daily three-way reconciliation across the platform wallet ledger, payment gateway reports, and bank statements
• Reconcile deposits, withdrawals, chargebacks, reversals, provider fees, and settlement batches across all payment providers
• Investigate discrepancies to root cause — timing differences, failed webhooks, duplicate credits, provider errors — and drive them to resolution
• Maintain a clear breaks log with ageing, ownership, and resolution status, and escalate material items immediately
• Work with engineering to diagnose systemic reconciliation issues and improve automated matching
• Reconcile bonus, promotion, and adjustment entries against approvals
• Support month-end close with reconciled cash and wallet liability positions
• Document reconciliation procedures and controls, and support internal and external audit requests
• Monitor payment provider performance — success rates, settlement timeliness, fee accuracy — and flag anomalies
• Produce daily and weekly reconciliation reporting for finance leadership

What We're Looking For

• 4+ years of reconciliation experience in a high-volume environment — fintech, payments, banking, or betting/gaming
• Hands-on experience reconciling across payment gateways/PSPs and bank accounts in Nigeria
• Advanced Excel/Google Sheets skills; comfort handling large transaction datasets
• Working SQL knowledge, or a strong willingness to learn it quickly — you'll query transaction data directly
• A methodical, sceptical mindset: you verify rather than assume, and you don't close a break you can't explain
• Understanding of double-entry principles and how wallet/ledger systems work
• Clear documentation habits and comfort working to daily deadlines
• A Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related fieldNice to Have
• Experience in a betting or gaming operator's finance or payments team
• Familiarity with Nigerian PSPs and their settlement/reporting behaviours
• Experience with automated reconciliation tools or building matching logic
• Exposure to BI tools (Metabase, Power BI) for reporting
• Part-qualified ICAN/ACCA

Role Description

• This is a full-time hybrid role for a Senior Backend Engineer, based in Lagos — hybrid, with 3 days per week in the office. You'll build the core systems that move real money in real time: the wallet, bet engine, live betting, settlement, copy-betting infrastructure, and the social feed. Our stack is modern .NET on AWS, and the engineering bar is high — correctness and reliability aren't optional when a dropped message means a mis-settled bet. This is a hands-on role for an experienced engineer who wants meaningful ownership of production systems at a company still small enough for individual work to be visible.

What You'll Do

• Design, build, and ship backend services in C# / .NET 8+ across wallet, betting, settlement, and social domains
• Build event-driven systems on Kafka with exactly-once semantics where money is involved
• Model and optimise data in PostgreSQL, with Redis for caching and real-time state
• Integrate with third-party providers — odds and trading feeds, payment gateways, KYC, and fraud tooling
• Write well-tested, observable, production-grade code, and own your services in production
• Participate in design reviews, code reviews, and incident response
• Optimise for real-world Nigerian conditions: unreliable networks, retries, and idempotency everywhere
• Collaborate with frontend and mobile engineers on clean, efficient API contracts
• Mentor mid-level engineers and help raise the team's engineering bar

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years of backend engineering experience with deep expertise in C# / .NET (ideally .NET 6+/8)
• Strong fundamentals in distributed systems, API design, event-driven architecture, and data modelling
• Hands-on production experience with PostgreSQL and Redis; Kafka or an equivalent message broker
• Solid cloud experience — AWS preferred; Kubernetes/EKS a strong plus
• A track record of building systems where correctness matters: payments, ledgers, trading, or similar
• Strong testing discipline and familiarity with CI/CD pipelines
• Clear communication and comfort working closely with product and other engineering teams
• A pragmatic bias for shipping — clean code, but delivered

Nice to Have

• Experience in betting, gaming, fintech, or other high-transaction-volume platforms
• Familiarity with BFF (Backend for Frontend) patterns for mobile and web clients
• Exposure to observability tooling — Datadog, OpenTelemetry, or equivalent
• Experience building for African markets, especially Nigeria
