BRAWL STARS TEAM IS STACKED WITH GREAT PROGRAMMERS WHO WANT TO HIRE MORE GREAT PROGRAMMERS TO CALL THEM "MY NEW FAVORITE TEAM MEMBER" AND CALL UPON YOU TO JOIN THE QUEST OF ADDING A LITTLE BIT OF FUN TO THE DAILY LIVES OF OUR HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF PLAYERS.

At Supercell, game programmers are at the heart of the team, working together with designers, artists, and other programmers to craft fresh, new experiences for our players. Coding features is of course your bread and butter, but you'd also have a go at optimising the game and improving load times for all the Brawl Stars fans. You're someone who likes to decide what to do with the people you work with rather than being told what to do from above and create tremendous impact on a small team.

Our game programmers are mostly generalists, so you can work on lots of different areas of the game. It’s important that you take pride in your work and know what it means to take responsibility and deliver quality and fun to players. You are comfortable taking a feature from a vague idea on a post-it to a fully working and polished implementation.

We offer you a chance to join a team of professionals where talent feeds talent. We do not believe in bureaucracy or convoluted processes. Game development is a team sport, so we work together to achieve the best results. We trust each other’s skills and value each other’s work. All of us are driven by the amazing opportunity to make a game played by millions of players better and better. If this sounds exciting to you, then you might just be the person we are looking for!

WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING:

  • Craft great high-quality features and tech that help players enjoy our games more

  • Be passionate about the game and contribute design ideas to help it be better

  • Write robust code to be used by millions of players

  • Work closely with the team on shared goals while individually delivering complete work

WHAT YOU HAVE:

  • Broad understanding of games programming

  • Strong, professional experience using C++

  • Equally capable building on top of existing code as creating new systems

  • Passion to learn new skills and technology

  • Passion for games

WOULD BE NICE IF YOU ALSO HAVE:

  • Experience creating or working on a live-service title

  • Experience with real-time, multiplayer games

  • Ability to deeply optimize code for performance

  • Deep experience in any of the following areas: mobile UI, gameplay, modern graphics tech, live-ops events

WHERE YOU'LL BE:

This role is based in our Helsinki studio.

ABOUT SUPERCELL

Supercell is a games company from Helsinki, Finland, with offices https://supr.cl/jd-offices also in San Francisco, Seoul, Shanghai, and London.

Our mission is to create great games https://supr.cl/jd-games that as many people as possible play for years and that are remembered forever.

So, how do we make great games? By putting together the best teams and giving them the freedom and independence to succeed. And by taking risks, failing, sharing learnings https://supercell.com/en/news/learning-from-failures/, and killing lots of projects.

YOU ARE NOT YOUR JOB TITLE ™

Here, you won’t need to focus on chasing titles https://supr.cl/jd-job-title or climbing ladders. Internally, our job titles don’t include prefixes like Senior, Junior, Principal, or Director. Recognition isn’t tied to your title, as it doesn't define the impact you can have around here.

BENEFITS AND COMPENSATION:

Luring you in with glitter, glamour, and gems isn't what we're about. We want you to enjoy your time here fully, so we structure our compensation and benefits https://supr.cl/jd-benefits with that in mind. It starts with perceiving you as a human being, not a resource.
