We are partnering with a fast-growing iGaming technology company operating a real-money, high-traffic gaming platform used by players across regulated markets in the U.S. This is a full-time Service Operations Manager role supporting a modern, cloud-based platform built on Linux, microservices, CI/CD pipelines, and real-time monitoring tools.
