Senior Full-Stack Developer Needed for Sports Analytics SaaS Platform

Senior Full-Stack Developer Needed to Build a Soccer Analytics SaaS Platform About the Project I am building a professional subscription-based soccer analytics platform. The platform provides advanced soccer intelligence, statistical analysis, and decision-support tools using historical and live data from multiple APIs. The goal is to create one of the most comprehensive soccer analytics platforms available, initially launching with two competitions before expanding into additional leagues. This is a long-term project, and I am looking for an experienced developer who wants to build a serious commercial software platform rather than complete a short freelance project. What We Are Building The platform will include: * Secure user accounts and authentication * Subscription and payment system * Admin dashboard * Soccer data database * Automated API integrations * Match analysis engine * Player analysis * Team analysis * Historical statistics * Live data updates * Match rating engine * Confidence scoring * Responsive web application * Mobile-friendly design * Secure cloud deployment The system will analyse thousands of matches and millions of data points. Preferred Technology I am open to recommendations, but my current preference is: Backend * Python * FastAPI * PostgreSQL Frontend * React * Next.js Infrastructure * AWS * Docker * GitHub Data Integration * Sports data APIs * Odds APIs * Other relevant sports data providers If you believe another technology stack would provide a better long-term solution, I would like to hear your recommendations. Responsibilities You will be responsible for: * Designing the system architecture * Building the backend * Database design * API integrations * User authentication * Subscription system * Admin dashboard * User dashboard * Analytics engine * Testing * Documentation * Deployment * Ongoing development and maintenance Experience Required Ideally you have experience building: * SaaS platforms * Subscription-based applications * API-heavy systems * Data dashboards * Analytics platforms * Large databases * Scalable cloud applications Experience with sports analytics is an advantage but is not essential. About Me I already have a detailed product vision, feature specification, and long-term roadmap. I am looking for a developer who can help transform that vision into a secure, scalable, high-quality platform while providing technical guidance throughout development. Clear communication, reliability, and attention to detail are essential. Please Include in Your Proposal * Examples of similar projects * Portfolio and/or GitHub * Technologies you would recommend * Estimated development timeline * Estimated project cost * Whether you work independently or as part of a team Long-Term Opportunity This is not a one-time project. The successful developer will have the opportunity to continue developing the platform as it expands into additional leagues, new analytics modules, mobile applications, AI-powered features, and future enhancements.
