About the Project
We’re building a revolutionary, location-based mobile game based on the world’s strongest gaming IP — transforming the real world into a living, breathing game board. Players walk, buy, trade, and build real-world properties, powered by geolocation, real-time data, and AI personalization.
Our mission is not just to adapt a famous brand, but to redefine how players experience the world around them. This means pioneering a complete sonic identity for a global franchise — something that has never been done before in this space.
About the Role
We’re looking for an experienced Scala Dev Team Lead to join our backend team and help drive the development of game and data services for one of our flagship titles. You’ll take full ownership of end-to-end solutions, collaborate closely with game designers and product owners, and make key decisions about new features and technology choices.
This is a hands-on, office-based leadership role — you’ll work on-site with your team to ensure close collaboration, quick feedback loops, and a strong team spirit. You’ll balance technical excellence with people leadership, guiding your team, fostering collaboration, and ensuring smooth and efficient delivery.
What You’ll Do
Lead the design, development, and maintenance of scalable game and data backend services.
Drive the evolution of infrastructure and automation processes.
Collaborate with product owners and game designers to shape features and prioritize work.
Define and optimize team workflows and delivery processes.
Make and advocate for sound architecture and technology decisions.
Foster a culture of open communication, trust, and continuous improvement.
Lead by example in both technical and organizational aspects.
