Job Details

Software Engineer 

VGW is an interactive entertainment company, harnessing technology and creativity to deliver world-class, free-to-play games.

As a Software Engineer on our Growth team, you’ll be at the forefront of developing scalable services and systems that power our newest games, driving player engagement and seamless integration across our product portfolio.

What you should know about our Engineering team:

  • We make room to do things the right way;
  • You own your projects: you build it, you ship it, you run it;
  • We were born in the cloud: practices and principles like CI/CD, IaC, O11y and CyberSec are part of what we do.

When it comes to Learning and Development:

  • Learning is part of our fabric. We have a world-class Engineering Learning and Development program and we are passionate about career development;

  • We are proactive in the community attending many local and international conferences;
  • We have both a technical and management track for career progression and promotions;
  • We have a library of books and videos with good content and encourage staying on top of new practices. 

In terms of our tech stack, we host our docker containerised apps on AWS, sometimes in ECS but moving to EKS Kubernetes. In the containers, we run Kotlin on the JVM. TypeScript runs our client side where it’s mostly React. Our databases are PostgreSQL and DynamoDB with Snowflake as our Data warehouse. 

What you will bring to the role:

  • Proficiency in Kotlin for backend development;
  • Understanding of cloud technologies, ideally AWS and Terraform for infrastructure automation;
  • Proven knowledge of DynamoDB and designing solutions for high-performance data storage;
  • Strong skills in software design, clean coding, and automated testing;
  • Excellent communication skills for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
