Job Description:

Are you ready to make your mark in the realm of mobile gaming by crafting the world's best games? If you have the skills and passion to turn that vision into reality, we want to hear from you! We’re looking for a Developer to join our Kingdom. You’ll be part of a team that speaks your language, where we take on complex challenges - using some pretty nice tech.

Our games are loved by hundreds of millions of people, and you will be building them, as well as the engines, systems and platforms that make them play beautifully on any platform. You will be part of a team of developers and help facilitate architectural decisions and hands-on work to support the development of our roadmap features. You should have a broad range of knowledge and be able to context switch easily to provide active support across the team.

Your Role Within Our Kingdom

As part of the development team, you will enjoy a creative, challenging, and collaborative environment where your ideas will be valued equally as much as your programming expertise.

Some of your responsibilities include:

  • Design, architect, test and implement game features
  • Take an active part in feature creation and innovation
  • Maintain, innovate and optimise new and existing game features
  • Deliver high-quality and well-structured code
  • Be a role model for less experienced developers

Skills to Create Thrills

You are a programmer who enjoys various challenges and strives to deliver great products and technology. You are curious and a fast learner and are excited to contribute to live games with a massive user base.

  • Excellent C++ knowledge
  • Experienced with system development, ideally within the game industry
  • Ability to work closely with cross-discipline teams to understand their needs
  • High sense of quality and polish
  • Agile approach and fluency in the methods

A Great Saga Needs All Sorts of Heroes

King strives to be a place where everyone can be their most authentic self. We recognize that diversity, equity and inclusion is a vital and continuous conversation, and that change only happens when we all come together. It’s our mission to build a diverse and inclusive Kingdom for our people, players, and community.

Making the World Playful

Making the World Playful is our mission – it’s the thread that connects our people, our players, and our passion for our games. Let’s face it, who doesn’t love a bit of fun?

Kingsters are seriously playful: creative thinkers who balance art and science to bring moments of magic to millions daily. But our players aren’t the only ones that can level-up. We’re always looking for ways to champion each other and make what’s already great, even better.

So, if this feels like a fun way to spend your days, and you share our passion, our values, and our hunger to shape the future, join us in Making the World Playful.
