Job Description:

We are looking for an experienced Senior Backend Engineer to join our central team, which develops and maintains a framework, service, and web-based application that make Live Operations (LiveOps) possible, and enables our games to be fresh, engaging and relevant for players. As our backend engineer, you will be responsible for developing and maintaining the service, game framework, and infrastructure. You will work closely with both game teams and partner teams, and the code you produce will directly impact the experience of all our players.

Job Responsibility:

  • Design, implement, and maintain highly scalable backend capabilities as part of our Live Operability (LiveOps) framework used by our live games
  • Troubleshoot customer issues and help them use the system effectively
  • Provide round-the-clock, first-line production environment support on a rotating on-call duty
  • Take technical ownership of our Live Operability (LiveOps) framework
  • Contribute to developing new solutions to customer problems and evolving needs

Requirements:

  • Excellent Java programming skills, with experience in server-side Java, concurrency handling, and distributed systems
  • Strong SQL knowledge, including database design and implementation
  • Highly autonomous, proactive, and self-driven
  • Open and respectful attitude towards colleagues
  • Team-oriented mindset rather than an individual-contributor mentality
  • Comfortable working in a multicultural environment, often across time zones (primarily Helsinki)
  • Passion for games

Nice to have:

  • Previous experience with high-throughput live systems (or, at minimum, a strong appreciation of the challenges involved)
  • Experience with cloud computing (e.g., AWS, Terraform)
  • Prior server development experience without using application servers or frameworks like Spring
  • Experience with live operability related technologies
What we offer:
  • Relocation support
  • Dedicated mobility team and partners
  • Compensation and benefits structured to allow you to enjoy your time
