I’m ready to commission a robust, production-grade API that powers casino and slot games across web, mobile, and desktop channels. The service must expose endpoints for real-time game data, handle secure player authentication, and reliably update bet settlements with millisecond accuracy. Security is a top priority: every request and response needs advanced encryption at rest and in transit, along with strong key management and token-based auth (JWT or similar). Please structure the code so compliance additions (e.g., GDPR, local gaming regulators) can be layered in without heavy refactoring. Preferred stack is RESTful JSON over HTTPS; WebSocket streaming for live odds or spin results would be a plus. Clean Swagger / OpenAPI documentation and unit tests are mandatory so my in-house team can pick up feature work later. Deploy in Docker-ready containers; I host on AWS, so native services like API Gateway, Lambda, Aurora, or DynamoDB are familiar territory, but I’m open to your architectural recommendations if latency and scalability benchmarks are met. Deliverables • Fully documented source code for all endpoints (game data, auth, settlements) • Postman or Insomnia collection for quick testing • Database schema and migration scripts • CI/CD config with automated tests and static analysis • A short hand-over call or video walkthrough on completion I’ll evaluate proposals on demonstrated experience with gaming or high-frequency transaction APIs, encryption best practices, and clarity of your development timeline. Let’s build something rock-solid that can go live without a hitch.
