Gearbox Software is looking for an experienced programmer who can build game servers. This engineer needs to bridge the gap between game code, Gearbox's backend RESTful services, and cloud hosting platforms. Ideally this isn’t your first rodeo: Candidates should be fluent in C++, as that's where they will be doing most of their work. However, knowledge of cloud platforms such as AWS as well as web technologies (HTTP, JSON, WebSocket, Golang) is also essential. Postman and Curl should be familiar tools, and Linux knowledge is a plus. A typical workday might consist of writing game server code in C++, deploying a fleet of server instances and monitoring traffic between them and player clients.
