Job Description
Description
50 million users play games on the CrazyGames platform every month. Our mobile apps are quite new: we started a year ago, launched last summer and hit 2.5 million sessions last month. We’re looking for a product-minded engineer to help scale our apps into the core of the CrazyGames experience. You’ll work across the stack: native iOS/Android, React, custom Capacitor plugins, Node backends, and Terraform infrastructure. You don’t need to be an expert in all of them — but you should be eager to dive into any of them.
Why this role is unusual: you’ll be building mobile-first on top of a platform that already has 50M users and hundreds of game developers. Most engineers never get both the scale and the blank canvas at the same time.
Key outcomes for the role:
Within 1 month you are familiar with the codebase, fix bugs, and contribute to larger changes for our 50M users.
Within 3 months, you implement user-facing features end-to-end and conduct experiments to improve core metrics.
Within 6 months, you take ownership of adding features to our app, such as implementing the possibility to play games while offline while ensuring that progress within games is transferred between devices when the device gets internet access.
Within 12 months, you fully understand the high-level architecture of the codebase so that you can work together with your Team Lead to specify and coordinate large new user-facing features that encompass multiple code projects.
What we offer:
Top-notch engineers as colleagues.
Real ownership — you’ll shape what gets built, not just how it’s built.
A modern tech stack: Node.js, React, Capacitor, TypeScript, GraphQL. Terraform infrastructure on AWS.
Flexible working hours and location. The results are what count!
Team weeks: we organize a week somewhere in Europe once or twice per year. We pay for transport and accommodation so you can have fun with the team.
The opportunity to play games and claim it’s work.
This role can be performed fully remotely if your timezone is between GMT-2 and GMT+6, or hybrid if you live close to Leuven, Belgium.
Requirements
You’ll thrive here if:
You have a Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD degree in Computer Science/Engineering/… or at least 3 years of relevant experience.
You have good software engineering skills and knowledge of technical concepts in the context of the web.
You are happy to bounce around different technologies on a daily basis.
You can think in terms of users, can judge and prioritize features, and can convert them into technical requirements.
You have an eye for detail and for the big picture.
You combine knowledge of software development with a business sense, an interest in UX, and strong analytical skills.
