Job Description - Lead Programmer – Live Mobile Game




A well-established Helsinki-based game studio with a strong track record of shipping and maintaining globally successful titles is looking for a Lead Developer to own the technical vision of a live, long-running mobile game with a passionate global player base.







This is not a greenfield project — it’s a mature, complex codebase that needs a seasoned engineer who can keep it healthy, push it forward, and elevate the team around them.







What you’ll do



  • Own the technical and architectural direction of the game with hands-on involvement

  • Lead technical discovery and evaluation for new features and internal tools

  • Act as the unifying tech voice across cross-functional teams

  • Collaborate closely with external partners and platform/data/security teams

  • Continuously improve tools, processes, and codebase quality







Please Note



  • Must already have the right to work in Finland (EU/EEA/Swiss citizenship or valid permit) — visa sponsorship is not available

  • Hybrid role: minimum 3 days/week in Helsinki office


Requirements



  • Proven experience as a technical lead in live, free-to-play mobile games

  • Strong C++ background across the full game development lifecycle

  • Skilled in profiling, debugging, and performance optimization

  • Experience with multi-platform development (iOS, Android; PC/Mac/Web a bonus)

  • Comfortable with CI/CD, branching strategies, rollouts, and incident management

  • Strong communicator who works well with both technical and non-technical stakeholders










Benefits



  • Competitive salary with room to grow

  • Healthcare, lunch benefit, free gym, commuting benefits

  • A people-first culture that genuinely values work-life balance
