Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark Tactile Games Aps Full time

It's an exciting time to join Tactile. We're a diverse team of storytellers, puzzle enthusiasts, and casual mobile game creators. Our story began in 2008 in the heart of beautiful Copenhagen, and since then we have experienced continuous growth, establishing ourselves as one of the largest gaming companies in Denmark. In more recent years, we have been scaling fast, in big part thanks to the success of a little game called Lily's Garden. Now we're on a mission to solidify our position as one of the leaders in creating out-of-the-ordinary casual puzzle games.

With more than 300 talented individuals, we are a mix of over 40 nationalities and 43% women. We truly appreciate the richness of different experiences and perspectives that Tactilers bring to the game. This is why we foster a lean organisational culture, in which each individual is encouraged to take responsibility, be open and grow in their own way. We pride ourselves in cultivating a studio environment that stays away from crunch, that fosters your skills no matter what your discipline is, and one that gives you a place to be creative alongside other passionate and invested storytellers.

Your role & impact:
We are currently growing our Core team and are on the search for a Backend Engineer to join the team of talented engineers supporting our live game operations (LiveOps). The Core team at Tactile is responsible for building internal tools, platforms, and systems, which are used to manage our game, data, and marketing operations. As a Backend Engineer within our Core LiveOps team, you will be working on the business-critical LiveOps dashboard, which is used by different teams within the business to evaluate and improve their day-to-day operations. You will also be creating new features and functionalities on our Game Web Services, which are important for improving players' in-game experiences, and working on our Build Server, the internal CI/CD solution for deploying our games. We use a variety of technologies for our backend services. Our platform is written in TypeScript and Node.js, with MongoDB and BigQuery as the storage components. We use React to build our client-side front-end. Strong knowledge of these technologies along with others that are similar is a great asset to this role. This role is based in our beautiful Copenhagen office, as we truly believe that when talented people work closely together, amazing things happen We therefore offer full relocation support to those coming from outside of Denmark.
Okay, let's get a little bit more specific.

Here's what you'll be doing on the day-to-day as a Backend Engineer on our Core team:

  • Building new features and functionalities for the tools and systems supporting our game development processes
  • Building and automating new games related systems
  • Improving, extending, and monitoring back and front-end tools
  • Gaining a thorough understanding of the different shared backend technologies, and how they interact
  • Contributing to our data warehouse and analytics systems

To keep it short & sweet, as a part of our Core team, you'll be working with a modern stack:

  • TypeScript, Node.js & Express.js (as our main language and frameworks)
  • REST APIs
  • GCP
  • Docker
  • Kubernetes
  • CircleCI
  • MongoDB & Redis
  • BigQuery (for our big data pipelines)
  • DataDog (monitoring system)
  • Airflow
  • React.js
  • ... and more

We do not expect you to know everything about this stack (we're not looking for unicorns), but you should be open to and comfortable with learning new technologies.
Practices & principles we cannot live without:

  • Clean coding practices
  • Code reviews
  • OOP
  • SOLID principles
  • Test-driven development (TDD) & unit testing
  • Dependency Injection

... and currently reading about Domain-driven design in our Book Club.

What's in it for you?
Beautiful office space with probably the best view in Copenhagen
Pension and private health insurance
A chance to work with the latest tools and technology
Opportunities for individual growth with development talks as well as workshops, books, and courses
Daily, healthy organic breakfast and lunch prepared by our professional chefs in-house
Social activities, including game nights, book club, Friday bar, and more
Relocation package if you are coming from outside of Denmark
Free Danish lessons with our in-house Danish teacher
