Senior Software Engineer C++
Playrix is one of the most successful mobile game development companies in the world. In terms of mobile application revenue, we rank first in Europe and are in the top 3 worldwide. Our games have been installed 2.3 billion times (that's a third of the world's population!) and more than 30 million people around the world play them every day.
The Playrix technology team is developing a world-class engine which has been used to write all of the company's hits. We are proud of our product and can safely compare it in terms of quality and capabilities with engines like Unity and Unreal. We believe that development teams should be able to focus on the product while we take care of advanced technologies.
We have big plans for the growth and development of our projects, which is why we are looking for the strongest experts to join our development teams.
That said, experience in game development is not at all necessary: we have an excellent adaptation system to ease the transition for beginners or experts from other industries.
This role requires relocation from Russia and Belarus to one of our offices or remote work from other countries (except Russia and Belarus). Find out more .
