Tech Lead

The company is looking for a strong Tech Lead to take on the technical implementation of a mobile online game built on top of a ready-made game engine. This is a key role in a small team with no excessive management layers — you'll work directly with the project founder and the Lead Game Producer, owning all technical decisions, architecture, and code quality. You'll also coordinate developers and write code yourself.

What you'll do

• Develop the application (backend and frontend) on top of a ready-made game engine: architecture, technical decisions, standards, pipeline
• Coordinate the work of developers (Unity Developer, Full-stack Developer), set tasks and monitor their completion
• Hire and onboard new developers as the project grows
• Write code personally and participate in the implementation of key project systems — client and server side
• Set up client-server interaction: API, state synchronization, backend integration
• Ensure code quality: reviews, best practices, stable builds
• Confidently defend technical estimates and decisions in front of the Lead Game Producer
• Interact with designers, artists, and QA, helping turn game mechanics into working technical solutions

What we need

• 7-8+ years of development experience
• Experience in mobile app/game development — must have successfully launched projects in your portfolio (not prototypes or abandoned halfway)
• Proficient in both Cocos Creator (JavaScript/TypeScript) and Unity (C#)
• Full-stack development experience
• Client-server development experience, understanding of network interaction for multiplayer mechanics
• Experience building an application from scratch on top of a ready-made engine/platform
• Experience hiring and coordinating a team of developers
• Strong engineering foundation: architecture, patterns, clean and maintainable code
• Autonomy — making technical decisions without excessive approval
• Fluent Russian

What's in it for you

• Fully remote work
• High degree of autonomy and direct influence on the technical implementation of the product
• No multi-level management structure
• Additional project-based motivation can be discussed individually
