As a backend programmer, you’ll be responsible for building our meta (gaming) services of a free-to-play mobile title which will be globally operated by our publisher. Hundreds of thousands concurrent users is a minimum requirement.
You are:
Mastering multiple programming languages. Javascript/typescript (Nest.js) is our major language but there is no limit. We use other languages as well: Python, Java, Golang, Rust, C/C++, etc. Language diversity is the nature of open sources and the microservice ecosystem.
Familiar with microservices architecture. We are using Kubernetes although microservices is more than that.
Familiar with one of the three major public clouds. We are using AWS and many cloud native features.
Database practices, Postgresql is our primary database and other databases like Redis, Dynamodb, etc. Familiar with cross services transactions (database per service pattern, saga patterns).
Mastering Linux.
Mastering Internet technologies.
A good team player. Not just need to communicate with other programmers (client/server), there are also game designers, system engineers, database administrators, etc. And in multiple languages, Chinese, English at least.
You must demonstrate your:
Programming skills.
System engineering knowledge like performance tuning, services scaling.
