A company based in the UK, building advanced platforms for sports betting analytics and high-frequency trading. They are creating a brand-new webscraping team to work alongside our existing software engineers to scale out the number of bookmakers and sports betting exchanges they trade on. The platform you’d be working on is distributed, low latency and handles significant amounts of real money trading activity. It processes thousands of messages per second and carries out complex analyses and trading decisions on an event-driven basis.
You’d be working on developing new integrations with bookmaker websites & APIs.Each of these integrations is written in Golang to take advantage of the internal libraries and tooling they’ve built to support these integrations. If you’ve not used Golang before but have experience with other systems languages like Java, C++,C#, etc. used for high-performance back-end software they’d be happy to teach you. You’d need a strong knowledge of modern web technologies (e.g. Javascript, HTML/CSS, websockets, JSON etc) and how to reverse engineer/scrape them.Experience with browser emulation technologies like Puppeteer is a bonus although not essential.
The platform stack is predominantly built around Golang and Postgres, deployed using docker and a CI/CD stack including GitHub Actions. They are big fans of investing in CI/CD, integration testing and other tooling allowing them to release changes frequently and safely. They integrate a lot of open source into their work and encourage contributing back. Almost everyone at the company has software engineering experience and they have a strong culture of putting engineering best practices first.
