Your Mission
We’re looking for a Python Web Service expert to join our team. You will design and implement our critical path services, develop game client code and work with studios to integrate these into the latest titles. Demonware has some of the biggest entertainment launches in the world with player counts going from zero to millions of players on day one and Storage services make that possible.
You will lead technical direction and standards with fellow senior engineers on the Storage team and across Demonware. Contribute to our product vision and architectural roadmap and help guide our customers’ plans for the future.
The Storage teams Python services are built on top of Kubernetes, Cassandra DB, Redis, Elasticsearch, Kafka and typically deployed to our own on premises hardware using Ansible, Puppet or git workflows. Knowledge of some of these technologies would be a huge plus.
All our services are accessed from C++ clients which are integrated into Activision’s specific game engines. Integrating our features will be required but don’t worry if you don’t know C++ yet, if you want to learn this is the perfect opportunity!
