Senior Software Engineer

At Mojang Studios, the creators of Minecraft, we are on a mission to build a better world through the power of play. Why play? Well, play is at the heart of everything we do. It’s the blocky backbone of our games, the core of our development philosophy, and even the origin of our name. From the relentless experimentation of our endlessly inspiring community to the classrooms where Minecraft has become an essential teaching tool, play is the bedrock of our existence. We enable millions to create and play together, connect people across the globe, and foster a community that is among the most active and passionate in the world. Our community is global and incredibly diverse. When we are developing anything within our franchise, we keep this in mind. We want everyone to not only feel included in Minecraft, but also to see themselves in what we make. Our goal is for the Mojang Studios team to be as diverse as our community. The Minecraft Bedrock team is seeking a motivated Senior Software Engineer to join our Bedrock Build Team. The Bedrock Build Team creates and maintains the core build infrastructure and pipelines across 15+ platforms. We ensure the security of the codebase, manage end-to-end signing of production binaries, and optimize development environments for hundreds of developers worldwide. As Minecraft is played on consoles, desktops, and mobile, our code base is multi-faceted and leverages cloud services such as Azure DevOps, GitHub, and many cloud-based Azure resources. The role would contribute new code and tooling to scale to additional platforms or decrease total cycle time as well as reduce complexity in build configurations. You are passionate about end-to-end build infrastructure, DevOps best practices, and internal developer productivity – from build systems to CI/CD pipelines, to caching tools – that are fast, reliable, maintainable and enjoyable. You are energized by supporting others and creating a collaborative environment working with internal Mojang developers. You love using your technical background to bring clarity and understanding to complex projects and can effectively communicate the work. Your data-driven decision-making raises the quality of the product and improves internal developer satisfaction. Microsoft’s mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees, we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond. In the end, it’s the people of Mojang Studios that make this place truly special. When you join, you’ll find yourself in the company of incredibly bright, warm, and creative individuals all united and working toward a single goal. Come help us reach it!
