What we’re looking for
We’re looking for a Game Engineer – Lead Tech (Games) to define and develop the interactive gameplay layer of the platform, focusing on building modular, repeatable game systems rather than one-off experiences. This role will lead the creation of core game modules that power multiple game experiences at launch, designed to be configurable and extensible over time. You’ll join a team that designs and delivers digital experiences with measurable impact, combining strategy, engineering, and human‑centred design with deep technical expertise.
Responsibilities
Build interactive gameplay systems for mobile-first experiences (web and/or native)
Develop modular game frameworks that support multiple game types
Use AI‑assisted and agentic workflows to rapidly prototype, iterate, and tune gameplay systems
Implement core mechanics (scoring, timing, streaks, rewards)
Integrate with backend APIs (player data, leaderboards, progression)
Support data‑driven tuning (e.g. values controlled via JSON/config)
Optimize performance across devices and environments
Provide technical leadership on game systems and architecture
Qualifications
+5 years of experience building interactive systems using web or mobile technologies (JavaScript/TypeScript or similar)
Experience working in AI‑forward, agentic development workflows (e.g. Claude Code, Cursor) and leveraging them to accelerate development
Experience with modular, reusable systems (not one‑off builds)
Comfortable working with API‑driven and data‑configurable systems
English proficiency at B2 level or higher (able to communicate effectively in written and spoken form in professional settings)
What's in It for You
Fully remote—work from anywhere
Benefits—PTO and other perks depending on the client
Work with U.S.‑based companies building exciting, impactful products
Join collaborative, high‑performance teams that value your input and expertise
If you’re a Game Engineer who thrives on solving complex challenges, delivering elegant solutions, and working with talented teams around the world, we’d love to hear from you.
