Hybrid Python Developer (Sports sphere) en Coherent solutions

Company Background

Our client is a remote-first, multinational company in the sports tech and gaming industry, backed by top-tier investors and founders. The team operates primarily from Philadelphia, USA, and Sofia, Bulgaria, with a close-knit, collaborative culture across regions. Their platform redefines the online gaming experience by adding social and engaging elements to traditional sports betting—making it more inclusive, rewarding, and community-driven.

Project Description

The goal of the project is to build a social network-style interactive layer on top of an existing sports gaming application. The platform is free-to-play and allows users to compete, rank on leaderboards, and earn rewards using both virtual and real currency mechanisms.
