Our company’s mission is to entertain hundreds of millions of people for decades. We already entertain 50M+ players worldwide and have grown into a team of 200+ game industry professionals in less than three years. And now, we have also expanded to Berlin, one of Europe's key talent hubs for game companies, and we’re in the process of building our first Merge Mansion feature team to work from this vibrant city. This is where we hope you come in: to play a crucial role in bringing features to life from pre-production to production and beyond. You will take on a variety of tasks and responsibilities from writing code and breaking boundaries to serving other developers and players through your programming efforts.

- Writing and optimizing code to create efficient and reusable systems and components
- Assessing and implementing testability in both produced code and developed features
- Continuously evaluating your work to avoid boilerplate, adhering to good programming patterns, and utilizing SOLID principles
- Enforcing code conventions, actively improving them by identifying optimal approaches and communicating potential enhancements
- Ensuring your work is easily understandable by other developers and striving for simplicity in solutions over complicated implementations
- Maintaining and improving documentation to provide information to other developers and foster a transparent working culture
- Continually developing your skills, engaging in personal and professional growth that ultimately reflects on the output of the team

**Requirements**:
Every role is eventually shaped to match our unique passions, backgrounds and strengths. Here are some of the key skills and experience you should already have when joining Metacore as a Game Programmer:

- Great deal of knowledge on various game technology areas and hands-on experience working with a live game
- Strong, professional background writing C# in the context of Unity
- Collaborative skills for effective teamwork across different disciplines, such as Design, Production and Art
- Knack for writing clear and understandable code, provide extra information and document features and code when needed
- Ability to provide feasible project timeline estimates and consistently meet those deadlines
- Creative problem-solving skills coupled with an analytical mindset
- Understanding of what it means to develop for mobile platforms like Android and iOS, including platform limitations, interaction methods, and the dynamic nature of technology
- Basic understanding of CI/CD systems, like GitHub Actions

In addition to these, it would be nice but not mandatory for you to have these as well:

- Extensive understanding of Unity Technologies like, DOTS, Addressables, Cloud Tools, Extensive Profiling / Performance tools
- Understanding of AWS and cloud technologies
- Practical know-how of other game engines such as Unreal, Godot and/or any other
- Experience working with other programming languages
- Experience in developing games or technology with an online component
