  • Collaborate with programmers and content providers from their own teams as well as other teams to make optimal solutions.


Who you are:

  • One or more shipped online client/server products (games, web services, cloud solutions etc).
  • Strong knowledge of C++, but we would love it if you also have knowledge of C# and code design.
  • Experience building and deploying cloud-native solutions, eg. using Azure (preferred), AWS, or GCP services.
  • Advanced understanding of TCP/IP, UDP, NAT, and in-depth knowledge of networking models.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English.
  • A collaborative attitude.
