Company Description
Principal Mini Programs Architect
The Principal Mini Programs Architect will lead the design, architecture, and delivery of the OleOle Mini Programs platform, creating the foundation for a global ecosystem of third-party applications within the world’s largest football SuperApp. This individual will define the platform architecture, developer experience, APIs, SDKs, security model, and operational framework that allows external developers and enterprise partners to build and distribute Mini Programs across hundreds of millions of football fans worldwide.
Working closely with the CTO, product leadership, and engineering teams, the Principal Mini Programs Architect will own the technical vision for a platform supporting digital commerce, gaming, ticketing, hospitality, news, merchandise, AI services, fan engagement, financial services, and future Web3 applications. The role requires balancing startup execution speed with enterprise-grade architecture capable of supporting massive global scale.
Responsibilities include defining the Mini Program runtime, lifecycle management, sandboxing and security architecture, developer onboarding, API gateway strategy, SDK architecture, payment integration, identity and authentication, moderation framework, analytics, versioning, deployment pipelines, and long-term platform scalability. 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.
