Why Midnite?

Midnite is a next-generation betting platform that is built for today’s fandom. We are a collective of engineers and designers who all share a passion for sports and gaming. We exist to bring fans closer to the games they love through the excitement of betting on their favourites.

Unlike the alternatives, Midnite doesn’t feel like a website built two decades ago. Instead, it’s a cutting-edge creation, designed and constructed from the ground up with the latest technologies. Crafting an experience that’s truly intuitive, immersive, and immediately understandable is no walk in the park, but we thrive on the challenge. We believe we’re on the brink of creating something truly awesome.

About You

You’ll be our first ever dedicated IT hire, so you’ll need to be comfortable owning things end-to-end, from day-to-day tech support to tooling, access, and compliance. You’ll build smart, scalable workflows that help our team move fast, securely, and confidently. Over time, you’ll have the opportunity to grow a team around you.

You thrive in fast-moving environments, think in systems, and get genuine satisfaction from helping others work better. You’re solutions-oriented, security-minded, and not afraid to roll up your sleeves. You’ve worked with a wide variety of technologies and tools, and you’re confident navigating both well-established systems and scale-up style environments.

IT is responsible for business systems and internal technology, while working with and supporting our Engineering team, which continues to own our customer-facing platform and development tooling.
