Sports Gaming Platform Rebet Builds a Full Engineering Team with Bolto in <5 weeks

The Problem: Rebet needed engineering help yesterday.

Connor Seeley is the Founding CTO at Rebet, a social sports gaming platform. Since launching in April 2023, the company has grown dramatically from three employees to over thirty and has become a leader in the sports gaming market. Connor joined early on, and the engineering work needed to keep up with Rebet’s rapid growth quickly became overwhelming. Connor knew he needed help.

“We needed to run a hiring process quickly and find talented, vetted software engineers who could hit the ground running."

That’s when he came to Bolto.

Solution

Bolto took in Connor’s job descriptions and used their AI-powered vetting system to match Rebet to pre-vetted developers with a demonstrated history of success. In under two weeks, Rebet had hired their first developer. Over the following three weeks, they hired three more developers to round out their team.

Once the developers were hired, Bolto took care of onboarding them to their global payroll solution and establishing compliant contracts.

"Bolto made it easy to focus on growth by handling payment and compliance. We liked being able to have recruiting & payment integrated and managed in one place."

Results

Connor was able to build a quality engineering team around him, enabling Rebet to keep up with their rapid growth. His new dev team has been in place for over six months with zero churn. The company has since added ten new employees and hundreds of new users and is establishing itself as a dominant force in sports gaming.

"Our developers have been high quality and we remain excited to work with them. This, combined with the high level of care we experienced as a customer, are the reasons I intend to stay with Bolto"
