Srdan brings 20 years’ development experience, including seven years with William Hill and four years with Huddle; he will be a key part of The Unit’s expansion drive as VP, Engineering

The Unit, a leader in product design and development for sports betting and iGaming, has made another stellar addition to its management team with the appointment of Srdan Srepfler as Vice President, Engineering.

Not only has Srdan been in development roles for more than two decades, he also comes with an extensive background in iGaming; the bulk of which coming with industry behemoth William Hill, where he worked for more than seven years.

In his time at William Hill, Srdan’s roles included Software Developer, Senior Software Engineer, Development Team Lead and Global Platform Backend Lead. After leaving William Hill, Srdan joined operator MoPlay as VP of Automation Engineering and QA, before serving as Architect and Developer for AsianLogic, owner of betting brand Dafabet.

Srdan’s most recent position was VP of Engineering for software provider Huddle. In his four years with the company, he established the engineering department, applied agile delivery methods, designed a robust data pipeline and executed integration with the likes of Genius Sports, Sportradar, TXODDS and LSports.

Srdan will utilise his experience as The Unit continues to deliver major technology stacks across web, mobile and cross-functional platforms. The Unit designs, develops and delivers premium custom applications from interactive widgets to frontends and complicated backends, and Srdan will continue to ensure these high standards are delivered, while overseeing the next stage of the company’s development.

The Unit has made a number of notable appointments in recent months as part of a significant period of expansion for the company, with Alan Bruce joining earlier this year as Sales and Account Director, followed by Aoife Dillon as Senior Account Manager and Andy Clerkson as Chairman.

Paddy Casey, Co-founder at The Unit, said: “I would personally like to welcome Srdan to the team here at The Unit; I am very excited about the wealth of experience he can bring to the table.

“At The Unit, we have established a reputation for designing and developing robust, scalable platforms, and the addition of Srdan to the team will allow us to do that, while producing products of an even stronger quality.

“Our experienced developers, designers and technical professionals strive to ensure we can support project development and delivery, and we feel Srdan is perfectly positioned to lead our efforts in doing that.

“With our recent expansion into new territories, a brand refresh and some high-profile names like Srdan joining the team, we are well placed to build on our past success and continue to make our mark on the industry.”

Srdan Srepfler added: “It is a pleasure for me to join the team at The Unit. This is a fast-growing and exciting business, and it’s the perfect time for me to take my next step in the iGaming industry.

“I am thrilled to become a part of The Unit’s ambitious plans for growth in the coming years, and I look forward to starting on some of the upcoming projects as part of the company’s next stage of growth.

“I have spent many years developing bespoke backends with emphasis on scalability, resilience and business flexibility. This is something I am keen to continue at The Unit, and I am very pleased to be given this opportunity. I can’t wait to get started with an experienced team of fellow professionals and to help steer the next stage of The Unit’s journey.”

QTech Games, the leading game aggregator across all emerging markets, has continued to maintain the momentum in its premium pipeline, as evidenced by its latest deal with BEON, an emerging force in the slots space, whose first raft of games is crash games-focussed.

Integrating a progressive portfolio from one of the most productive and innovative developers in the sector adds more muscle to QTech Games’ proprietary platform, which is leading the way across growth markets like LatAm and Africa. In a progressive production line that will span different slots genres, BEON is also committed to launching games tailored to specific partner requests, while simultaneously growing its portfolio with a new wave of titles in development.

As a result BEON is building a reputation for creating high-quality, immersive games with standout features that set them apart in any igaming domain, thanks to a smooth performance running off agile mechanics which are dedicated to gameplay precision and optimal retention. Its first five games to be released comprise Skydot, Fury Flight, Redy, Nomad and Orizon, while BEON’s unique Crash Game Generator tool allows operator partners to launch customised content inside 24 hours.

This collaboration delivers a targeted range of localized content, enabling QTech Games to continue to meet the varied preferences of players across emerging markets, while supporting both companies’ ambitions for global growth.

Philip Doftvik, QTech Games’ CEO, said: “BEON’s initial rollout of eye-catching crash games is premised on clever mechanics, easily intelligible gameplay, high payouts and colourful graphics, which are breaking up an often-copycat environment. This kind of content is well-suited to LatAm and African markets, which directly tracks our ongoing expansion throughout these territories. These games are robust, scalable, and future-ready – so, we look forward to seeing what’s next. ”

Saba Chkheidze, Managing Partner at BEON, added: “Partnering with QTech Games constitutes the perfect opportunity for us to bolster our product distribution across emerging markets and deliver our fantastic crash games to more and more top-tier operators.

GR8 Tech is adding a knockout dimension to its SiGMA Central Europe presence with Behind the Gloves. On November 3–6 in Rome, booth 5028-2 visitors can take up a challenge and train like a champion with Lee McFarland, iGaming veteran and founder of the Behind The Glove initiative.

Step Into the Ring

Each day at GR8 Tech’s booth 5028-2, Lee McFarland will lead 15-minute boxing training sessions on specialized pads, giving participants a taste of the discipline, focus, and resilience that define both elite athletes and elite operators. Sessions run:

  • 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM: Morning knockout slot
  • 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM: Afternoon power rounds

With a limited capacity of 12 slots per day, pre-registration is required at this LINK. Slots are available for individuals or pairs looking to share the experience.

Champions Train Together

The collaboration between GR8 Tech and Behind the Gloves is a natural fit. Lee McFarland, a British military veteran turned iGaming consultant, created the initiative to combine boxing with corporate wellness and social responsibility, proving that strong businesses are built on strong people and stronger communities.

At Behind The Gloves, we’ve always believed in the power of sport to connect people, energize communities, and tell authentic stories. Partnering with GR8 Tech at SiGMA Central Europe is a natural fit; they’re known as the ‘heavyweight of iGaming,’ and our activations are built around that same spirit of strength, discipline, and drive. Together, we’re creating more than just a stand experience—we’re building a moment that unites delegates through energy, fun, and purpose”, said Lee McFarland.

The activation reinforces GR8 Tech’s Platform for Champions positioning and the elite Heavyweight Club community of operators who are ready to lead, not follow. The company’s boxing-themed booth and partnership with Ready to Fight by Oleksandr Usyk embody the same champion’s mindset: resilience, high performance, and the relentless pursuit of excellence.

Champions don’t talk about performance—they live it,” said Yevhen Krazhan, CSO at GR8 Tech. “Bringing Behind The Gloves to our booth embodies the discipline and drive we build into our technology. If you want to compete at the highest level, you have to train like it.

Where Business Meets the Ring

The Behind The Gloves sessions complement GR8 Tech’s showcase of the ULTIM8 Sportsbook and The Heavyweight Rulebook—a collection of Champions’ Rules gathered from iGaming’s top performers. Together, they create an immersive experience where attendees don’t just learn about championship-level technology—they feel first-hand what it takes to be a champion.

Visit GR8 Tech at booth 5028-2, SiGMA Central Europe 2025 in Rome, November 3–6.
