Additional Information

CASINO UNIT

All team members take an active role in solution design and implementation, contributing to both game engine development and frontend development. The team is responsible for building and evolving core engine components as well as delivering rich, interactive user experiences. The project is closely integrated with distributed development teams, with active collaboration primarily with teams based in the United States. This provides exposure to international workflows, engineering standards, and cross-team communication in a global environment.

Our team develops web-based casino applications for mobile devices, focusing on modern frontend technologies and scalable architecture. The frontend stack is based on TypeScript and an internal framework that leverages PixiJS for rendering and GSAP for animations, enabling high-performance graphics and smooth, complex animations. Projects are developed from scratch, including core business logic and engine-level functionality. We work on a wide range of games and features, many of which require custom architectural solutions due to unique gameplay mechanics and performance requirements.

We support modern browsers and mobile platforms and actively follow current web and mobile technology trends related to graphics, animation, and performance optimization. If you are a creative, out-of-the-box thinker who wants to make an impact in a large-scale international product, you are welcome to apply for one of our open positions.
