The architect will also mentor engineering teams, establish technical standards, review architecture across multiple services, and collaborate with product teams to continuously expand platform capabilities.
 

OleOle is building a global football super app combining social networking, messaging, live scores, short-form video, gambling, commerce, payments, translation, and mini programs into a single ecosystem focused entirely on football.

The vision is to create the first true “WeChat for football” — a platform where fans, clubs, brands, leagues, sportsbooks, creators, and merchants can communicate, transact, and engage directly inside one global environment.

Unlike traditional social media platforms, OleOle is built specifically for sports fans and designed around communication, real-time engagement, commerce, and community.

The platform combines elements of:

• Twitter/X style social conversation
• TikTok-style short-form video
• WhatsApp-style messaging
• live score platforms
• programmable commerce
• mini program ecosystems similar to WeChat

All integrated into a single football-first platform.

Core Platform Vision

OleOle is designed around several key ideas:

Communication First

Fans can communicate directly with:

• clubs
• brands
• sportsbooks
• creators
• media companies
• other fans

through follows, messaging, sharing, comments, and real-time translated conversations.

Mini Program Ecosystem

OleOle is building a mini program platform that allows brands and partners to launch experiences directly inside the platform without requiring fans to download separate applications.

Initial mini program categories include:

• Games
• News
• Merchandise
• Ticket Sales
• VIP Hospitality
• Gambling

Fans can:

• follow or unfollow mini programs
• communicate directly with brands
• share mini programs with friends
• receive translated content automatically

Brands can communicate directly with followers within platform communication limits designed to prevent spam and preserve user experience.

Real-Time Translation

A core component of the platform is AI-driven real-time translation across conversations, content, video, messaging, and mini programs.

The goal is to remove language barriers between global football fans and allow mini programs to operate across dozens of languages automatically.

This creates a global communication layer connecting fans, clubs, brands, and creators worldwide.

Wallet + Payments Infrastructure

OleOle includes an integrated Wallet ID and payment infrastructure powering:

• commerce
• rewards
• gambling
• digital collectibles
• mini program transactions
• creator payouts

The platform is designed around programmable commerce and frictionless fan engagement.

Technology Stack

OleOle is being built as a native Rust platform focused on:

• scalability
• performance
• real-time communication
• low-latency systems
• global infrastructure
• payments
• social engagement
• video delivery

The company is also building:

• AI translation systems
• football history AI infrastructure
• developer platforms
• mini program tooling
• programmable payment rails

The Long-Term Vision

OleOle’s long-term vision is to become the global operating system for football fans:

• social networking
• communication
• commerce
• gaming
• gambling
• content
• ticketing
• rewards
• programmable fan experiences

all inside one interconnected ecosystem.

OleOle – Where Fans Kick Off

We are seeking a Principal Mini Programs Platform Architect who has designed and built large-scale developer platforms, application ecosystems, or extensibility frameworks. This is a platform architecture role—not a traditional frontend, mobile application, or website development position.

The successful candidate will help define the long-term architecture behind the OleOle Mini Programs ecosystem, enabling third-party developers, football clubs, brands, media companies, sportsbooks, ticketing providers, hospitality companies, merchandise partners, and gaming companies to build lightweight applications that run natively inside the OleOle platform.

The ideal candidate has experience building developer platforms where third-party applications inherit core platform capabilities such as authentication, identity, messaging, notifications, payments, localization, analytics, and security, allowing developers to focus on business functionality rather than infrastructure.

Candidates should have significant experience with several of the following:

• Designing developer platforms, application ecosystems, or extensibility frameworks.
• Building SDKs, APIs, developer tooling, and documentation for external developers.
• Architecting secure application runtimes, sandboxing, permissions, and application lifecycle management.
• Designing large-scale distributed systems capable of supporting millions of users and thousands of third-party applications.
• Building real-time communication systems, messaging infrastructure, event-driven architectures, and notification platforms.
• Developing high-performance backend services using Rust, or possessing extensive experience in another systems language with the ability to quickly become productive in Rust.
• Designing scalable API platforms, microservices, service discovery, authentication, authorization, and API gateways.
• Building payment, wallet, commerce, or financial platform infrastructure.
• Creating template-driven platforms, low-code/no-code systems, or AI-assisted application generation frameworks.
• Designing international platforms supporting localization, multilingual content, and automated translation.
• Working within consumer-facing products where reliability, scalability, performance, and low latency are critical.

Experience with one or more of the following platforms would be highly valuable:

• WeChat Mini Programs
• Shopify App Ecosystem
• Slack Apps
• Discord Applications
• Microsoft Teams Apps
• Apple Developer Platform
• Google Play Developer Platform
• Stripe Platform
• Twilio Developer Platform
• Firebase
• Cloudflare Developer Platform

Startup experience is strongly preferred. Candidates should be comfortable defining architecture from first principles, making pragmatic technical decisions, mentoring senior engineers, and building a platform capable of supporting hundreds of millions of users over time.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical discipline. Equivalent professional experience will also be considered.
• 10+ years of professional software engineering experience, including at least 5 years in senior, lead, principal, or architect-level roles.
• Proven experience designing and delivering large-scale platform architectures, developer ecosystems, or extensible application platforms.
• Strong expertise in distributed systems, microservices, cloud-native architecture, and high-availability infrastructure.
• Extensive experience designing RESTful APIs, RPC frameworks, SDKs, and developer-facing tools.
• Strong understanding of authentication, authorization, identity management, OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, JWT, API security, and permissions models.
• Experience with event-driven architectures, asynchronous messaging, distributed caching, and high-throughput communication systems.
• Proficiency in Rust is strongly preferred. Candidates with exceptional experience in Go, Java, C++, or similar systems languages and a demonstrated ability to adopt Rust will also be considered.
• Experience with Kubernetes, Docker, CI/CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure, observability, monitoring, and DevOps best practices.
• Experience building secure platforms supporting third-party developers, including application lifecycle management, versioning, sandboxing, and governance.
• Familiarity with payment platforms, digital wallets, financial infrastructure, or commerce platforms is highly desirable.
• Experience designing systems for international markets, including localization, multilingual applications, and large-scale consumer products.
• Excellent system design, architectural documentation, technical leadership, and communication skills.
• Proven ability to mentor engineers, conduct architecture reviews, establish engineering standards, and drive technical strategy across multiple teams.
• Startup experience or experience building products from concept through commercial launch is strongly preferred.
• Passion for building scalable technology platforms capable of supporting hundreds of millions of users.
