Summary

Position Summary

Essential Job Functions:
  • Design, code, integrate, test, and debug game software for slot machines.
  • Demonstrate a strong understanding of the platform hardware, libraries, and operating system.
  • Provide input on game design and scheduling as it relates to software implementation.
  • Effectively communicate technical requirements to team members.
  • Collaborate with software quality assurance engineers to ensure regulatory compliance and timely product release.

  • Apply healthy skepticism to AI-generated output: check for invented APIs or methods, subtly incorrect logic, and missed edge cases before work moves to review.
  • Set the standard for how the team verifies AI-assisted work; help others recognize and work around common AI shortcomings rather than taking output at face value.
  • Take a leading role evaluating and adopting agentic coding workflows as they mature, weighing fit against our regulatory constraints.
