The Role
Description

Here at Mito Digital, we love creating clever things: apps, websites, and complex digital solutions for lottery companies and aviation brands all over the world. Our lottery & betting development team of 30+ is on the lookout again—this time for a Backend Developer to join our new, greenfield, iLottery Engine Administrative Interface project.

If you’re into backend development, eager to learn Rust, and would love to work on large-scale backend systems for both Hungarian and international lottery companies, this might just be your lucky ticket.

Requirements
Your tasks will be...
  • Developing backend APIs (aka. middleware) for the product, a brand new iLottery Engine Administrative platform, built from scratch.
  • Working closely with our frontend developers and our backend architect as a team—you’ll be their padawan.
  • Supporting the frontend team to integrate APIs and helping them understand backend magic.
  • Communicating with partner engineers—sometimes via email, sometimes in meetings.
  • Testing, documenting, and delivering new features.
  • Debugging and problem-solving when things go sideways.
  • Growing your skills while learning how to build scalable systems for clients around the world.
We’re looking for someone who...
  • Knows how modern programming languages work and is excited to learn new ones (Rust is our pick here).
  • Has built web apps—at university, as a hobby, or in an internship.
  • Might be fresh out of school, but has already coded something cool (internships and hobby projects count!).
  • Understands how the internet works (TCP/IP, HTTP, TLS... ring a bell?).
  • Can write a basic database query without breaking a sweat.
  • Is a fast learner, motivated, and has an engineering mindset.
  • Speaks Hungarian and English. Don’t worry, we only need your English to read technical docs and chat with non-Hungarian partners.
We’ll be over the moon if...
  • You know any of these: Java, Rust, Go, C, C++, C#, Python, PHP.
  • You’ve heard of design patterns and principles (SOLID, DRY, etc.).
  • You’ve written tests for your code.
  • Linux doesn’t scare you—and you don’t think terminal is an airport lounge.
  • You’re familiar with REST APIs.
  • You have a solid foundation in computer science or engineering.
Benefits
What we offer:
  • Exciting Challenges & Impactful Work: Work on global projects that make a real difference, from travel bookings to creative advertising.
  • Seamless Onboarding & Support: A well-structured onboarding process and a dedicated buddy to help you settle in.
  • Hybrid Work & Comfortable Office: Work from home when needed, but enjoy a beautiful downtown Budapest office with MacBooks, great coffee, fresh fruit, and more.
  • Continuous Learning & Growth: Access to conferences, coaching, competitions, and opportunities to share your expertise. A native English coach is available for professional communication support.
  • Extra Days Off for Loyalty: Our Level Up system rewards your years with us by giving you additional paid leave.
  • Vibrant Community & Fun Culture: Join a workplace where work is serious, but fun is essential—hackathons, office parties, family events, and dog-friendly spaces.
  • Flexible Benefits & Health Package: Personal budget for sports, education or commuting plus annual access to routine and preventive screenings across various medical fields.
  • Our Core Values
    • Solution-oriented mindset
    • Continuous professional development
    • Trust, respect, and a healthy dose of humor
