Build Engineer

Do you want to take part in creating the game of a lifetime?

At Mainframe we are building a living world that people will call their home for years and hopefully decades. This world lives in the cloud and will through the years of its operations, become the setting for complex social drama that involves potentially millions of people around the clock and around the world.

Your mission and responsibilities

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to architect, optimize and maintain the overall infrastructure and build process within Mainframe. You will be joining a team of experienced game developers, designers, data scientists and infrastructure engineers that operate with a DevOps mindset.

You will be responsible for building and maintaining the systems and tools necessary to have robust and efficient continuous builds for our teams.

You will ensure that the build system is available, reliable and performant for all our teams.

You will also communicate with all disciplines within Mainframe to improve existing systems and determine new solutions.

As we are always trying to improve how we work, you will take part in setting our standards, as well as guiding and supporting our developers on how to use our systems.

You will help us improve our code quality by setting a standard in how we do unit tests, automation and perform code reviews.

In the first months of you joining us:

In your first month:

1. We want you to spend time getting to know us and the technology we are using.
2. Go through our on-boarding plan, familiarize yourself with all of our teams and start building an understanding of the dependencies they have on you.

In the next 3-6 months:

1. You will build out and improve our CI/CD Pipeline
2. Help to implement and maintain developer pre-commit flow
3. Day-to-day support of the Development Build process

Some success indicators for your role

• You have set up and run Continuous integration/Delivery systems.
• You have proficiency in creating build pipelines.
• You are comfortable to work in a tight team.
• You bring a positive and solution oriented approach.
• You have a desire to innovate, and bring the pragmatism to find the most optimal solution.
• You have the emotional intelligence to have empathy and understanding of other disciplines in and around the product.

Our tech stack is not set in stone, but currently we are using TeamCity, Perforce, Github and Incredibuild for our build pipeline. We are developing in Unreal using C++ and Python deployed in Docker containers into AWS, using EC2 and ECS/ECR, Postgres in RDS and Redis.

About Mainframe:

We have a human-friendly, equal-opportunity workplace that values collaboration, independence, and empathy.

We have offices in Helsinki, Reykjavik and Paris - but we work where we are most productive - for many of us that means remotely from home. All our offices are centrally located and we offer you top of the line work conditions wherever you work.

We are a well funded pan-Nordic start-up founded in 2019. We are working on a project we love: creating a cloud-native MMO, a social sandbox, accessible on any screen and offering new ways of playing with our friends. Joining us now is an opportunity to make an impact on the game we develop and the company culture very early on.
