Our game teams are stacked with great programmers who want to hire more great programmers to call them "my new favorite team member". As our live game teams continue chasing their ambitions and constantly developing the game and player experience, they 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.
The team we are focused on adding new members first is Clash of Clans.
At Supercell, client 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'll put on your designer hat and make a ton of calls on what goes into, and what doesn’t go into, the game. 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.
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!
