Senior Backend Developer

Do you thrive in collaborative teams and want your work to shape what players experience every day?

As a Backend Developer at Snowprint, you’ll build the backend systems, infrastructure, and tools that power our games. You’ll work closely with your fellow developers, designers, and other disciplines to create stable, scalable solutions, always with the player experience in mind.

At Snowprint Studios, we believe that kindness, collaboration, curiosity, and self-leadership are what make great games possible. We work in small, cross-disciplinary teams where people are trusted to take ownership, share ideas openly, and continuously improve how we build games together.

What you’ll be doing

You'll bring new game features to life while also supporting the systems, tooling, and infrastructure behind them. The role combines feature development with live operations, giving you the opportunity to work on both player-facing functionality and the technical foundations that keep the game running.

You'll take ownership of the technical areas you work on, from planning and implementation to testing and live operations. A normal week might include feature development, playtests, troubleshooting production issues, discussing technical approaches with the team, and improving systems to support future needs as the game evolves.

You’ll collaborate closely with your colleagues to shape technical solutions that work well for both the game and the people building it.
