Betsys

We are the largest supplier of sports betting solutions in Central and Eastern Europe. We provide a comprehensive range of products and services covering the entire spectrum of betting: prematch, live sports betting, popular e-sport matches, virtual sports etc. Our product is a central system for the operation of a sportsbook. It is the central hub for input data processing, odds recalculation, risk management, transaction logic and player registration. Sports betting software is one of the most technologically complex systems out there, especially when it comes to performance. The decisive aspect is the combination of high peaks during matches and the processing of large amounts of data in real time. What numbers can we boast of? We are able to transfer data from providers to our front end in approx. 60 milliseconds and manage up to 2.6 billion API requests per month. We are a software company, so most of us are developers (#php, #golang, #angular #kotlinmultiplatform #node.js #postgresql) who work in "self-managed" teams in an agile environment. Our headquarters are in Prague - Karlín, smaller hubs in Brno and Katowice, Poland. Currently we have about 150 employees. We like learning new things and thus move ourselves and the entire company forward. Among us you will find, for example, a chess player, a metal player, a wakeboarder and many others. Oh, and we also pamper a few girls. Our bosses know very well that you can't just sit at the computer all the time. And that's why we have Dina, Zuzka and Dáša who take care of company events and general comfort in the offices. We regularly meet and go out for a beer, do some sports, go karting or laser game. We organize pizza days, offsite events, parties and meet-ups.
