Job Description
We’re looking for a Tech Lead (Unity / Fullstack) to take ownership of the technical side of our early-stage mobile game that we plan to evolve into a full-fledged strategy title and expand to iOS and web.
We are looking for a hands-on leader — a “playing coach” who will combine technical management and team leadership with active involvement in coding and architecture.
Responsibilities:
- Lead Unity development from prototype to release, ensuring clean, scalable, and maintainable code.
- Audit current technical solutions and propose improvements to strengthen the product.
- Define and implement best practices in architecture, workflows, and performance optimization.
- Oversee the integration of analytics, ad networks, and third-party SDKs.
- Drive both client- and server-side implementation to support multiplayer, live-ops, and future 4X mechanics.
- Organize and support automated build, testing, release workflows, documentation and quality processes.
- Manage development resources and priorities to deliver on product goals.
- Mentor, support, and grow a high-performing development team.
- Collaborate closely with product and design to align on the long-term roadmap.

- Strong knowledge of client- and server-side development, with experience integrating backend services (SQL/NoSQL databases, Redis, Kafka/RabbitMQ, Docker/Kubernetes, and cloud platforms such as AWS/GCP/Azure).
- Proficiency in integrating third-party SDKs, analytics, and monetization tools.
- Proven ability to organize development workflows and optimize processes.
- Leadership skills: mentoring developers, fostering collaboration, and ensuring delivery.
- Clear communication and problem-solving abilities.
