About Us
You’ll join
MTS (Managed Trading Services) — the platform behind Sportradar’s risk betting management, processing millions of bets in real time for operators around the world. Our teams own high-throughput, low-latency services: risk and liability, odds and offer, ticket validation, and the data plane that feeds them.
We work in a modern cloud-native stack —
Java (Spring Boot / Quarkus),
Kafka / MSK,
gRPC & Protobuf,
AWS (EKS, ECS, DynamoDB, Aurora),
ArgoCD / GitOps,
Terraform, and observability on
Grafana, Prometheus and OpenTelemetry. This is a great place to level up: you’ll ship real features to production quickly, learn a genuinely rich domain, and grow toward owning larger pieces of it.
THE CHALLENGE
- Design, build, test and ship backend services and APIs that are part of a larger, real-time system — and see them through to production.
- Deliver in small increments. Break work into concrete, independently shippable pieces that land and get validated as you go, rather than accumulating into one big drop.
- Own your changes in production — help with monitoring, alerting and the occasional on-call, and learn how your services behave under real load.
- Write clean, well-tested, documented code, take part in code review, and help capture key decisions so the team can build on them.
- Learn the MTS ecosystem — how the interconnected services fit together — and grow the independence to make more calls yourself over time.
- Work with product managers and senior engineers to turn requirements into well-shaped, deliverable work.
- Use modern, AI-assisted development — we actively encourage spec-driven, agentic workflows to move faster with quality.
About You

- Comfortable with CI/CD and collaborative git workflows.
- AI-assisted, spec-driven development as part of your day-to-day workflow — not just autocomplete.
- Willingness to run what you build — going beyond writing code to owning your changes in production (deployment, monitoring, on-call).
Nice-to-have Skills
- Exposure to AWS, Kafka, Docker / Kubernetes, or relational and NoSQL databases.
