Role Summary

As a Senior Software Engineer (Platform & DevOps), you will work closely with our Product, Engineering, and QA teams to design, build, deploy, and operate the systems that power game scoring, league operations, statistics, and real-time sports experiences.

You’ll help build and operate the platform that powers thousands of live sporting events across North America. Your work will span modern React applications, backend services written in TypeScript and Go, PostgreSQL databases, cloud infrastructure on Google Cloud Platform, and the CI/CD pipelines that keep our platform reliable, scalable, and secure.

This is a hands-on engineering role. You’ll spend the majority of your time writing production code while helping shape the architecture, reliability, and long-term technical direction of our platform. We value engineers who enjoy solving difficult technical problems, continuously improving systems, and taking ownership beyond writing code.

Because we operate as a lean, highly collaborative engineering organization, we’re looking for someone who enjoys ownership, takes initiative, and is comfortable moving fluidly between application development, data, cloud infrastructure, and operational excellence.
