ABOUT BETR
Founded in 2022 by Joey Levy and Jake Paul, Betr has built the world's first real money gaming Super App. The Betr Super App currently consists of Picks, Social Sportsbook, Social Casino, and Arcade - and will soon include Prediction Markets alongside other new products.

About the Role:
Betr is looking for a Frontend Engineer to join our mobile team! You'll build React Native and TypeScript applications powering our Sportsbook, Social Sweepstakes Sportsbook, Arcade, & Casino products across iOS, Android, and web.
This is a high-impact role to own features end-to-end, work with real-time WebSocket data feeds, build hardware-accelerated graphics and physics-based animations, and ship polished products to users across multiple US states with strict regulatory requirements.
What You'll Do:
- Build and ship features for sportsbook, casino, and fantasy apps using React Native
- Implement complex UI: market layouts, betting slips, player props, lobby experiences
- Create physics-based animations and gesture-driven interactions (carousel pagers, radial controls, animated transitions)
- Work with canvas-based graphics for player cards, game visualizations, and dynamic effects
- Contribute to our theme-based design system with 100+ shared components
- Build and maintain WebSocket subscriptions for live odds, match updates, and user notifications
- Implement state synchronization between real-time streams and local stores
- Handle deep linking from push notifications, attribution links, and web referrals
- Integrate payment flows: in-app purchases, bank transfers, card entry with verification
- Debug and fix platform-specific issues across iOS, Android, and web
- Optimize performance: animation frame rates, render efficiency, memory management
- Write worklet functions for animation-thread execution
- Maintain E2E automation tests and contribute to CI/CD pipelines

- Track record shipping polished, production-quality mobile apps
- Experience debugging platform-specific issues
- Understanding of mobile performance optimization
- Sports betting, gaming, or fintech experience
- Canvas-based graphics experience (React Skia or similar)

What you need to know about the Calgary Tech Scene
Employees can spend up to one-third of their life at work, so choosing the right company is crucial, not just for the job itself but for the company culture as well. While startups often offer dynamic culture and growth opportunities, large corporations provide benefits like career development and networking, especially appealing to recent graduates. Fortunately, Calgary stands out as a hub for both, recognized as one of Startup Genome's Top 100 Emerging Ecosystems, while also playing host to a number of multinational enterprises. In Calgary, job seekers can find a wide range of opportunities.
