About UsBetstamp is the pricing intelligence layer for sports betting. We turn 200+ sportsbooks, exchanges, and prediction markets into one sharp, real-time view of fair value — for the sportsbooks that price against it, the bettors who bet with it, and the traders who move on it.We launched in 2020, built by professional bettors who needed sharper tools than the market offered and won at scale using them. That same pricing now runs as infrastructure across the industry. Because it's still used to win real money, it can't drift — every model is backtested against years of closing lines and monitored continuously. What our customers run on is the pricing we stake our own edge on.What We BuildOne pricing engine, delivered three ways:Sportsbooks and operators get fair-value pricing on player props, alternates, and ladders, correlation-aware same-game-parlay pricing, and a normalized real-time and historical feed that drops into their existing trading stack.Professional bettors get Betstamp PRO, the professional odds screen — True Line pricing across 200+ books and real-time edge detection the moment a market is mispriced.Prediction market traders get the raw feed by API: sub-second data on every market we cover, benchmarked against the full spread of books and exchanges.200+ sportsbooks and operators. 2,500+ markets. Sub-second refresh.Why BetstampWe're at the point where a product built for bettors has become infrastructure the industry runs on — and prediction markets have opened a category that barely existed three years ago. That's a rare window, and we're small enough that the people who join now shape what gets built rather than maintain what already exists.The work has unusual clarity to it. Pricing is either sharp or it isn't, and our customers would know within a day if it weren't. You'll see the effect of your work quickly, and you'll be trusted with real scope early.CareersLearn more at RoleYou’ll take technical ownership of our real-time data platform — a Go monorepo with 100+ source integrations,



a Redis Streams and ClickHouse pipeline, and the API and web app that deliver line movement, edge, and expected value at sub-second refresh. This is a senior role for someone who wants their hands in the code and their judgment on the architecture: roughly half technical leadership (direction, review, mentoring, planning), half building.AI is central to how we expect the team to operate. You’ll use AI tools heavily in your own work, set the standard for the team, and continually evaluate how new capabilities can improve our development process and products.Architecture: Decide what gets built, improved, or retired across the monorepo, pro.Betstamp.Com, and supporting services.Hands-on delivery: Ship code regularly, including the work that requires senior judgment — complex migrations, production incidents, irreversible changes.Technical mentoring: Review code, raise the bar, and help develop the engineers around you.AI-enabled engineering: Improve team output without lowering the bar for correctness, security, or maintainability.Production reliability: Uptime, alerting, incident response, and the operational practices behind a feed people trade on.Planning: Scope work, set timelines, communicate tradeoffs to technical and non-technical stakeholders.Go 1.25 monorepoPostgreSQL 18, Atlas, and ClickHouseRedis/Dragonfly, Redis Streams, and RabbitMQKubernetes, Docker, and GitHub ActionsPrometheus and GrafanaReact 19, Vite, TypeScript, and TailwindPlaywright, gRPC, and rotating proxy infrastructureSeveral years building and operating production backend systemsStrong experience with a typed,
