About Hibiscustech

Hibiscustech is building the next gen AI powered online gaming playground under its PsyPlay brand— reimagining timeless games like Chess, Ludo, Connect 4, Poker and more with smart features, deep analytics, and a delightful multiplayer experience.
We’re not just building games — we’re building an intelligent, scalable gaming platform and the foundation for future AI powered consumer products.
If you want to work on meaningful problems, learn fast, and shape a product from the ground up, we’d love to hear from you.

 
Why Join Us?

• Early seat on a fast moving, ambitious team
• Work with Go, Python, PostgreSQL, Firebase, and scalable backend patterns
• Build a product that people love, not just a line on your CV
• Chance to earn trust and grow into a core technical role as the company grows
• Startup mindset: learn by doing, ship fast, take ownership
We value builders who think long term and take pride in their craft.

What You’ll Work On

• Build and maintain Go and Python microservices powering multiplayer game logic
• Design PostgreSQL schemas & queries for game state, player stats, and leaderboards
• Implement real time and batch pipelines for analytics and AI integration (e.g., Stockfish for Chess, custom AI for Ludo)
• Secure and optimize our API layer & auth (currently on Firebase + REST APIs)
• Write clear, maintainable code and collaborate on code reviews & design discussions
• Help lay down CI/CD pipelines, observability, and deployment practices

What We’re Looking For

• Solid foundation in backend engineering (databases, REST APIs, auth, scaling concepts)
• Hands on experience with Go and Python, or the willingness to learn them quickly
• Comfort working with PostgreSQL and writing efficient SQL
• Familiarity with Git and basic cloud/Linux environments
• Hunger to learn and deliver
• Bonus: exposure to real time systems, AI/ML concepts, or gaming platforms

✅ You understand the uncertainty and excitement of early stage startups.
✅ You care about clean code, thoughtful design, and users.
✅ You’re proactive, self driven, and communicate well.
✅ You’re curious about gaming, AI, or both.

What’s In It for You?
