Key Responsibilities:
• Develop and implement new features for the internal Live Ops tool.
• Troubleshoot, debug, and resolve issues promptly.
• Design frameworks and systems to support new feature development.
• Write high-quality, maintainable, and well-structured code.
• Ensure solutions meet specified requirements.
• Participate in code reviews, offering constructive feedback to peers.
• Document processes, designs, and systems comprehensively.
• Take ownership of problems from concept to delivery, continuously learning and applying new skills as needed.
Minimum Qualifications:
• 2+ years of software engineering experience in the game industry.
• Proven track record of shipping products in a collaborative team environment.
• Proficiency in front-end technologies, including JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML5, CSS, React.
• Strong experience with version control systems like Git.
• B.Sc. in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal.
• Proficiency in English (written and spoken).
Desired Skills:
• Experience with C# and Unity for game development.
• Experience with Go programming.
• Familiarity with unit testing, CI/CD pipelines, networking, and backend systems.
