Job description

Principal Solutions Architect - (Sportsbook)

Remote UK or Ireland

I’m working on a senior architecture role for a well established sportsbook provider, where you'll play a key part in a major technology transformation onto AWS.

Due to the key involvement this role will have in building their sportsbook and casino/igaming platforms, the successful candidate for this role will need prior experience in Betting, specifically for Sportsbook with some exposure to iGaming or Casino being advantageous.

Think:

High-scale, high-availability platforms

You’ll be a senior technical authority, working closely with engineering teams and taking complex ideas from strategy–through to production - by very definition, you will come in and hit the ground running when it comes to reinventing their sportsbook and casino platforms.

We’re looking for someone with significant architecture and engineering experience and a background in complex, high-volume, always‑on environments.

AWS, distributed systems, event streaming, modernisation and microservices experience would all be highly relevant.

If you’re a Principal / Lead Architect who enjoys solving difficult technical problems and wants genuine influence over a major transformation, this could very well be your next career move.
