EU-based, hybrid, and a bias toward people who have shipped something into a regulated environment before. Open roles below.
We don't hire for specific frameworks — we hire for systems thinking in regulated environments. The stack below is what's live in production; it evolves as we grow.
Node.js + TypeScript core. Go for latency-critical paths (wallet, risk engine). gRPC between services. PostgreSQL + Redis primary stores.
React (operator console). Astro (marketing + content). Design system owns tokens; engineers own component logic.
Kubernetes (self-hosted + cloud). Cloudflare for edge delivery. Monitoring via Grafana + custom alerting on wallet events and fraud signals.
Python for ML training pipelines. Real-time scoring at inference served via internal API. Models cover: fraud, personalisation, risk, retention.
Owns the multi-product wallet. Distributed systems, money-movement experience, comfortable with audit trails as a first-class concern.
ML/heuristics for fraud, AML, and bonus abuse signals. iGaming or payments fraud background a plus.
Curaçao / MGA / Anjouan track. Internal-facing role, partnering with engineering on licence-aware feature gating.
Designs the operator-facing surface — wallet, CRM, bonus engine, risk dashboard. Heavy data-density design experience.
Turbo Stars operates hybrid from an EU hub. We work with engineers who are EU-based and can participate meaningfully in in-person collaboration — not permanently remote, but not five days mandatory office either. Specific arrangements depend on the role and team.
Not necessarily, but regulated-environment experience helps — fintech, payments, trading, or any domain where the money is real, the audit trail matters, and compliance shapes architecture. If you've shipped something where a bug has real financial consequences, you'll fit the mindset.
We keep it focused: (1) a short intro call to check mutual fit and answer your questions; (2) a technical screen relevant to the role (no whiteboard algorithms — we talk through real systems problems); (3) a final conversation with the team lead and sometimes a product or compliance stakeholder for cross-functional roles. We move fast — usually within two weeks.
Backend: Node.js + TypeScript core, Go for latency-critical paths (wallet, risk engine), gRPC for internal services, PostgreSQL + Redis. Infrastructure: Kubernetes, Cloudflare edge. AI/ML: Python training pipelines, real-time inference serving. We hire for systems thinking first — the stack is a detail.
Email sales@turbostars.io with the subject line 'Open application — [your discipline]' and a short paragraph on what you'd own here. We read everything. Most of our best hires were not-yet-posted roles filled by people who reached out directly.
Turbo Stars was founded in 2018, so we're past the early startup phase — there is real product, real customers, and a real revenue model. But we're still small enough that each person has significant ownership and impact. If you want infrastructure scale without big-company inertia, that's what this is.
