Gaming platform engine handling millions of bets at massive scale
Happening powers Superbet Group's global sports betting and gaming platforms, running production workloads across 501–1,000 employees from a London base. The stack—Kafka, Snowflake, AWS, Docker, plus native mobile (iOS/Android with Swift/Kotlin)—sits behind active projects in observability, real-time data pipelines, and high-scale backend integrations. Heavy senior hiring (29 of 50 roles) in engineering and data signals a mature org tackling deep infrastructure challenges: observability tooling, tech debt reduction, and the operational demands of a high-volume betting platform.
Happening operates as the core technology platform for Superbet Group's sports betting and gaming brands across multiple markets. The company built its own end-to-end tech stack rather than relying on legacy frameworks, enabling custom solutions for millions of concurrent customers and real-time odds/pricing updates. Product surfaces include mobile apps (iOS, Android) and web frontends integrated with a backend built on Kafka streaming, Snowflake data warehousing, and AWS infrastructure. Teams span engineering, data, product, trading, and support, with active hiring across nine countries including the UK, Croatia, Spain, Belgium, Canada, Brazil, Romania, Serbia, and Peru.
Happening uses Kafka, Snowflake, AWS, Docker, Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, and Firebase. Mobile is built in Swift/Kotlin (iOS/Android). Backend languages include Java, JavaScript, and Ruby. Testing frameworks include Xray and Postman.
Happening is based in London, United Kingdom, and employs 501–1,000 people across global teams and multiple hiring regions.
