Playson

Technical Program Manager

• You'll be responsible for a specific area: games, features, or platform work.
• From the first conversation about a requirement through to production - you're on the hook for the whole thing.
• This isn't a meeting-facilitation job. It's about making sure engineering teams have a clear path to delivery and nothing is getting in their way.
• You set the timeline, track it, and communicate changes before people start asking questions.
• If there's a blocker, you've already seen it. If a release isn't ready, you say so - clearly and early.
• You'll look at how work flows through your area and fix what's broken.
• You'll design something that actually works, iterate on it, and make it better over time.
• Quality is yours too. Not QA's problem alone, not the tech lead's problem.
• You own release readiness: is it tested, is it documented, does anyone know the operational risk.
• you'll work closely with product, engineering, QA, and client-facing teams, keep them aligned, and report directly to the VP of Delivery.

Full-stack Engineer

• Lead technical decision-making and contribute to the architecture of a high-load, microservices-based gaming platform.
• Stay deeply hands-on and write production code every day. This is not an architecture-only or people-management role.
• Design, develop, and maintain scalable backend services that directly power our gaming products.
• Take ownership of complex backend systems, from technical design to delivery, monitoring, optimisation, and support.
• Continuously improve system performance, latency, reliability, and scalability in a high-throughput environment.
• Collaborate closely with Product Owners, engineers, and cross-functional teams to deliver features end-to-end.
• Drive and participate in code reviews, setting a high standard for clean, maintainable, efficient, and production-ready code.
• Conduct architectural reviews and guide the team toward practical, scalable, and long-term technical solutions.
• Solve complex business and technical problems with a strong engineering mindset and pragmatic decision-making.
• Act as a technical role model for the team by showing strong ownership, discipline, and engineering excellence.
• Mentor other engineers through daily collaboration, technical discussions, and hands-on example.
• Participate in on-call rotations within the squad to ensure system reliability, availability, and fast incident response.
• Grow toward technical leadership while remaining strongly connected to code, delivery, and system ownership.
