AI Summary

## The role, at a glance.

Playson is seeking a Compliance Engineer who combines production software development with technical regulatory and certification ownership for casino games and platform systems. The role builds automated, secure compliance pipelines; produces versioned audit evidence; and enforces release gates for game certification, ISO assessments, and future SOC 2 readiness. The engineer will use Node.js, TypeScript, SQL, logs, and observability tooling to validate game behavior, automate controls, and investigate control failures. Success requires direct, precise communication with certification labs and auditors while escalating regulatory interpretations to the Head of Compliance. This is a high-accountability role with authority to block releases that lack sufficient evidence or fail compliance gates.

Sample interview questionsHow would you replace a manual game-certification evidence process with an automated compliance pipeline?I would first map the required evidence, owners, source systems, approval points, and failure modes. I would then build versioned automation that captures build hashes, PAR sheets, configuration snapshots, test results, and manifests from the delivery workflow, with immutable storage and a clear linkage to each release. Finally, I would enforce fail-closed gates so a release cannot proceed when required artefacts are missing, inconsistent, or unapproved.

A certification lab asks whether the submitted game build matches the RTP and rules documentation. How would you respond?

I would provide the exact requested evidence: the submitted build hash, release manifest, approved RTP/PAR documentation, configuration snapshot, and traceable test outputs. I would explain the factual relationship among those artefacts without speculating beyond the evidence. If the question became a regulatory interpretation, I would document it and route it to the Head of Compliance.

Describe how you would investigate an apparent compliance-control failure identified in a dashboard.

I would validate the dashboard signal against source logs, production data, pipeline events, and the underlying control logic before concluding that a control failed. I would identify whether the issue is a real operating failure, missing telemetry, an ingestion problem, or a visualization defect. For a confirmed failure, I would preserve evidence, assess affected releases, implement containment where needed, and document corrective and preventive actions.

How would you handle a product squad asking for an exception to a release gate because of commercial urgency?

I would state the specific unmet gate criteria and the evidence required to satisfy them, keeping the discussion factual and calm. If the requirement is mandatory, I would not approve the release until the deficiency is closed or an authorized risk decision is made by the appropriate compliance leadership. I would record the request, decision, rationale, and any compensating controls for auditability.

What practices keep ISO 27001 or SOC 2 evidence useful when it is reviewed years later?

Evidence should be complete, dated, versioned, attributable, and linked to the relevant control, system scope, and release or change record. I would favor automatically generated artefacts from authoritative systems over screenshots and retain them under defined access and retention controls. Documentation should explain what the evidence proves, how it was generated, and any relevant exceptions or approvals.

Opportunity details

## About this role.

### About Playson

Playson builds premium casino games and platform solutions for operators worldwide. Our products reach millions of players across regulated markets, and we ship frequently – which means our certification and compliance evidence has to be as well-engineered as the games themselves.

We are hiring a Software Developer, Compliance, to own that engineering: a pipeline that lets us ship faster and safer, and a defence of the platform and the games that holds up in front of a lab, an ISO assessor, and a future SOC 2 auditor.

About the role

You are a software developer sitting inside compliance. You will build and continuously evolve a secure compliance pipeline so we can ship games and platform changes faster and safer – and you will be the technical person who defends what we shipped when an auditor, a certification lab, or a regulator asks.

The scope is not games alone. You will stand in front of game certification labs, and you will also defend the platform: ISO certification of our systems and the evidence work that leads into a future SOC 2 audit. In every case, the job is the same. You produce the proof. You walk the auditor through it. You answer the question that was asked, with the evidence that was requested, and you stop there.

You will own the technical side of game certification. You take a game math package from the review channel to the lab, you produce the evidence the lab needs – build hashes, PAR sheets, configuration snapshots, version manifests – and you answer the lab’s technical questions yourself, without a developer sitting next to you. When a certificate comes back, you are the person who confirms every deficiency is closed before the game is allowed past the pre-release gate.

Between lab submissions, you treat the pipeline as a product. Manual evidence collection, one-off screenshots, and tribal knowledge are the things you replace. You automate controls, tighten the audit trail, and shorten the path from “ready to ship” to “ready to show an auditor” without weakening the bar. Faster and safer at the same time is the point of this role – not one at the expense of the other.

### What we’re looking for

*

You are a developer first. 3+ years writing production code, comfortable reading someone else’s codebase and forming your own opinion about what it does. You are not a documentation coordinator who learned some technical words

*

Strong Node.js and TypeScript. Our game math packages, engine integration, rules and bets migrations, test suites, and compliance automation are all JavaScript-side. You will read game math code and verify that what it does matches what we told the lab it does – and you will write the tooling that makes that check repeatable

*

You know what it takes to build certified products. You have worked for an iGaming game provider, a lottery, or another business where products require certification. You understand how that shapes development, testing, and releases, and why the code and supporting evidence need to stay aligned.

*

You build pipelines, not checklists. You have taken a manual, high-stakes process and turned it into something engineered: automated evidence, versioned artefacts, gates that fail closed

*

You can read data and write queries. SQL against a production analytics store, log investigation, understanding a metrics pipeline well enough to tell a real control failure from a broken dashboard

*

Composure in front of an auditor. In a lab session, an ISO assessment, or a future SOC 2 walkthrough, you answer the question that was asked with the evidence that was requested. You communicate with auditors and certification labs precisely and factually. You provide complete evidence for the question or control being assessed, avoid speculation, and escalate regulatory interpretations to the Head of Compliance

*

You know where your authority ends. When a question moves from technical fact to regulatory interpretation or commercial consequence, you route it to the Head of Compliance instead of improvising

*

You write clearly and permanently. Compliance evidence is read years later by people who were not in the room. Your documentation has to survive that

*

You are comfortable saying no. You will be the person telling a squad, under release pressure, that their change does not pass the gate. That conversation needs to be calm, specific, and final

*

Precise by temperament. You check the version number rather than remembering it. You are not bored by an audit trail

### Nice to have

*

Direct dealings with a certification lab (GLI, BMM, eCOGRA, iTech Labs, or similar) or a gaming regulator

*

Hands-on evidence work for ISO 27001, SOC 2, or an equivalent information-security audit

*

Understanding of RNG, RTP mathematics, and how statistical certification evidence is produced

*

Familiarity with multi-jurisdiction licensing (UKGC, MGA, and regulated EU and LatAm markets)

*

Observability and alerting tooling – Datadog or equivalent, including building automation on top of it rather than just reading dashboards

*

Experience with change-management controls, audit trails, and segregation-of-duties models

*

Incident response experience, particularly where the incident had a regulatory or audit dimension

### What you can expect on this role

*

A role with real authority: you hold gate sign-off, and a release does not go past you without it

*

Genuine engineering work – you own the compliance pipeline as a product, not a pile of checklists with a technical title

*

Direct exposure to certification labs, ISO assessors, and the path to SOC 2 – rare and portable experience

*

Close collaboration with math, QA, platform, and SRE across games and the platform

*

A compliance function that is being built up deliberately, with room to shape how it works

### What we offer

*

Competitive Salary

*

Quarterly Bonuses

*

Unlimited Paid Time Off

*

Unlimited Paid Sick Leave

*

Remote & Flexible Working

*

Private Medical Insurance

*

Financial Support for Life Events

*

Professional Development Budget

*

International Exposure

*

Regular Company Events

*Benefits may vary depending on location and contractual agreement
