About Us

We exist to provide fair, clean, and authentic gambling. And we stand against fake bets, rigged games, and shady operators. Our mission hasn't always been easy but we stand by our values.

Our team is remote and async with few meetings and no micromanagement. Here’s what else we offer:

• Option to receive payments in crypto;
• Unlimited paid time-off (as long as performance is maintained, of course);
• $2,000 every 3 years for a new laptop/PC grant up to, starting from year three;
• Contracts based on financial remuneration. No extra frills, just direct, cash compensation;
• We match 50% of what you spend on professional development courses up to $1,000 per year

And here are the core beliefs that drive us:

• We’re here to create the best gambling products we can and do right by our users at all times;
• We’re not here to be generic or to please the world;
• Good enough performance is never good enough; everyone is expected to go all in;
• We’re each accountable both for what we do and what we don’t.

We’re looking for obsessively passionate, based individuals who are ready to go all in and deliver quickly. So tell us your story and why you think you'd be the right fit for our team. Whether you're a genius basement dev with no college degree, a seasoned product manager, or a registered schizophrenic with a penchant for Shakespearean writing, we want to hear all about you.
