You will also be part of the development process like code reviews, pair- and mob-programming and DevOps practices. As a backend developer intern, you’ll design APIs, solve scalability challenges & write clean code for game functionalities. You will also help solve scalability challenges to support the growth of King games. You bring solid knowledge of data structures and algorithms, you are familiar with Java and understand client-server architecture. Knowledge of developing applications in GCP would be a bonus.

Skills to create thrills

You will ideally have an interest in games, and you should have the ability to work in a flexible and fluid environment, where the job will evolve over time. 

Tasty Bonus Skills:

  • You should be a current student or recently graduated 
  • Proficiency in Java
  • Excellent communication skills in English and great organization skills
  • Creative problem-solving skills

  • The ability to work well, both autonomously, and as part of a larger team

The skills listed above are intended to portray the range of roles we have available; you do not need to possess all of these skills to apply! We will look at your own individual skill set and determine which team you would be best suited to.

The brilliant experience we give our players comes from the diversity and experience of our people. A great saga needs all sorts of heroes. That’s why we hire all sorts of talent.
