Job Description:

The World of Warcraft mobile team is looking for a software engineer to take our existing Companion App build pipeline to the next level. While your primary focus will be on improving the build process, the World of Warcraft mobile team is a small, self-driven team, and as such, we're looking for a generalist keen on wearing several hats. We don't expect candidates to be experts in all areas; if you're a quick learner that can latch onto an idea and run it to completion, we'd love to see your application.

Blizzard Entertainment is a global company committed to growing our employees along with the business. We offer competitive benefits and strive for a healthy work / life balance. We foster a deeply collaborative and creative environment, a diverse and inclusive employee culture, and training and opportunity for professional growth. Our people are everything, and we are dedicated to creating the most epic entertainment experiences… ever. Join us!

• Work in Unity post-processing to set up native Android/iOS build steps

• Stay ahead of operating system releases to ensure that the app stays compatible
• Maintain collaborative connections with developers, SREs, QA, and other partner teams
