We’re looking for experienced Game Tech Programmers to join our game teams. We’re hiring for multiple game teams: Squad Busters, mo.co, Brawl Stars and Clash of Clans.

As a Game Tech Programmer in a Supercell game team you will work on technically challenging topics such as 3d rendering, online multiplayer techniques and runtime performance optimization.

You Are Not Your Job Title
Working with us means you won’t need to focus on chasing titles or climbing ladders. We’ve decided that our internal job titles don’t include prefixes like senior, junior, principal, or director. Instead, we embrace our non-hierarchical culture, allowing us to concentrate on what truly matters: doing what’s best for our players. Recognition isn’t tied to your job title, nor does your title define the impact you can have.
For hiring purposes, we do use industry-standard job titles to help attract talent. When it comes to public-facing spaces like LinkedIn, we trust and encourage everyone to select a title that feels most appropriate for them. Read More
