Job description

We are partnered with an independent German mobile game studio in their search for a Senior Software Developer (Unity) to join their team.

You will be working on live mobile games that are already played by hundreds of thousands of players every day. Your job is to keep them fun, fresh, and healthy; shipping updates, running events, improving systems and iterating based on real player behaviour.

This is very hands-on Unity work in a live-ops environment where you will touch gameplay, UI, events, monetization and performance - you will see the results of your work in production quickly.

In this role, you will:

  • Build and ship regular updates for live Unity games
  • Create and iterate on live-ops features (events, missions, offers, seasonal content)
  • Improve player engagement and retention
  • Work closely with product, backend, UA, and QA to ship safely and often
  • Integrate and evolve monetization features (IAPs, ads, offers)
  • Use analytics and experiments to guide decisions
  • Keep the client stable and fast across a wide range of devices
  • Rework existing code and improve our tech

Requirements

  • Strong professional experience with Unity and C#
  • Experience working on live mobile games
  • Solid understanding of mobile performance and production constraints
  • A pragmatic mindset: shipping player-visible improvements regularly
  • Comfortable collaborating across disciplines
  • Very strong English skills (spoken and written)

Bonus points for:

  • F2P / casual or idle game experience
  • Familiarity with live-ops systems, analytics, and remote configuration
  • Experience with monetization (IAPs, rewarded ads, interstitials)
  • Experience with common mobile SDKS (Firebase, AppLovin, Singular, …)
  • Backend-driven features
  • Mentoring or informal technical leadership experience

If you are looking to own live games, influence player experience and drive continuous improvement in a senior, collaborative team, this is the perfect role for you!

  • Please note, this role is fully remote. Candidates must be located within the EU, UK or Switzerland and hold legal right to live and work in their country of residence*

Benefits & conditions

  • Training Provided
  • Regular team and company events
  • Free drinks, fruit or food
  • Flexible working
  • Free Gym or Gym Subsidy
  • Private Medical/Dental healthcare
  • Bonus/Reward Scheme
  • Cycle to work scheme
