Beskrivning
Do you thrive in collaborative teams and want your work to shape what players experience every day?
As a Backend Developer at Snowprint, you'll build the backend systems, infrastructure, and tools that power our games. You'll work closely with your fellow developers, designers, and other disciplines to create stable, scalable solutions, always with the player experience in mind.
At Snowprint Studios, we believe that kindness, collaboration, curiosity, and self-leadership are what make great games possible. We work in small, cross-disciplinary teams where people are trusted to take ownership, share ideas openly, and continuously improve how we build games together.
What you'll be doing
You'll bring new game features to life while also supporting the systems, tooling, and infrastructure behind them. The role combines feature development with live operations, giving you the opportunity to work on both player-facing functionality and the technical foundations that keep the game running.
You'll take ownership of the technical areas you work on, from planning and implementation to testing and live operations. A normal week might include feature development, playtests, troubleshooting production issues, discussing technical approaches with the team, and improving systems to support future needs as the game evolves.
You'll collaborate closely with your colleagues to shape technical solutions that work well for both the game and the people building it.
Is this you?
You're an experienced backend developer who is fluent in Kotlin and/or Java and has experience working with live backend services. You're comfortable operating cloud infrastructure, ideally AWS.
You're comfortable with live operations, including troubleshooting complex production issues and balancing bug fixing and fine-tuning with longer-term improvements and planning.
You take ownership of your work and are comfortable working independently while staying connected to the bigger picture. You enjoy solving problems, making decisions, and seeing things through from idea to implementation.
You communicate clearly and collaborate well with colleagues across different disciplines. You're comfortable asking questions, discussing technical approaches, and working through problems together.
Where you'll work
Our Stockholm studio is located in Södermalm, and we work in a hybrid setup. We work from the office on Tuesdays and Fridays to support collaboration and social interaction, while other days offer flexibility depending on where you work best. We provide the setup and tools you need to work comfortably both at home and in the studio.
