DevOps engineer at Stockholm based AA studio

Want to be the one who keeps a whole game studio running at full speed?

In this role, you’ll power up the build and release systems behind a brand-new AA title, making sure every feature ships smoothly into the hands of players. Your tools are CI/CD, cloud, and containers; your loot is seeing hundreds of devs move faster because of your work. You’ll get to break things (safely), fix things (cleverly), and automate everything in between.

If you love the idea of being the one who makes “push button, game builds” a reality — this is your playground.
