Who are we looking for?
metacore is a team-first game company, looking for a self-driven Back-End Programmer. Our journey has just begun, so you will have a great opportunity – and a great responsibility – in shaping how we go about backend programming.
Naturally, we hope that you already have the skills, experience and ambition to do this better than anyone. But even more than that, we hope you share our passion for creating phenomenal mobile games. In the end, that’s what metacore is all about.
How do we work?
At metacore, independence and responsibility go hand in hand. Our small, autonomous teams have full decision-making power over their games and full ownership of their – mostly excellent – results. But topping charts isn’t always smooth.
That’s why we dare to stumble. Failures keep us humble, teach important lessons and get us closer to success. We crave for constructive feedback. It’s the highest form of caring for each other, and for the games we build.
We also like hearing the feedback from our players. We’re great at assuming what could work but only players can prove our hypotheses to hold true. Falling in love with our own ideas is fine as long as players love them too.
Here’s what your new role at metacore looks like:
- You design, implement, and test back-end functionality for games using C# and .Net Core
- You drive feature implementation from design to deployment and monitoring
- You create, maintain and operate the game server cloud infrastructure
- You make sure that game back-ends are efficient, secure, and scale well
- You integrate other cloud services to game servers
- You’ll be involved in designing client and back-end communication protocols
We’re expecting you to be an excellent programmer of course, but what does that actually mean?
- You know how to build and operate scalable applications for a large mass of simultaneous users
- Talking game architectures and technologies is your choice of small talk
- You’re comfortable with debugging, profiling and performance optimizations and have a couple of previous projects down your belt
- Deploying and operating log collection management and monitoring systems is right down your alley
- You’ve got strong C# programming skills
- You understand what needs to be understood of MySQL RDS databases
- You know your way around Kubernetes and AWS
Join us?
When we harness our passion to serve the desires of players, chart-topping games will come out. Note the plural: we are not settling for a one-hit wonder. We’re in this for the long haul – and hope to have you along from early on.
