Senior Software Engineer (Passport)

Immutable is a global technology company, powering the leading platform for building games on Ethereum. We are on a mission to build the future of gaming by redefining how games are played and discovered. Founded in 2018, Immutable is one of the fastest Australian companies to hit unicorn status, having raised more than AUD $300M+ and a valuation of AUD $3.5 billion.

Currently, the Immutable Group consists of the Immutable Platform, the leading platform for building games on Ethereum powering successful games like RavenQuest and Immortal Rising 2, and Immutable Games, a global leader in web3 game development and publishing with leading titles Gods Unchained and Guild of Guardians.

Our ambition is to make digital worlds real; we have incredible global growth plans as the fastest growing gaming chain in 2024 with 250+ games signed, more than in all previous years combined. 🚀

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will work in a high performing and passionate team focused on building out the Immutable Passport, the instant wallet onboarding solution for web3 games.

The two biggest challenges facing web3 game studios today are security and player onboarding. This is largely due to a unique requirement for web3 games: the need for a crypto wallet. Immutable Passport is a non-custodial wallet and authentication solution streamlining user onboarding through passwordless sign-on and automated wallet creation. Through Passport, game studios can drive adoption across mainstream audiences, maintain enterprise-grade security, and achieve global scalability. On the other side, gamers get access to a secure digital wallet, protection against fraud, and seamless authentication across web3 games and marketplaces as they discover and explore new digital worlds. In this role, you'll have a lot of flexibility regarding tools, technology and architecture: most of your goals will be product-driven rather than tech-driven.

Our mission is to propel Immutable Passport to the status of undisputed #1 gaming wallet in the world. As Immutable helps businesses scale, we’re looking to scale, too! We are searching for passionate software engineers who want to work on genuinely hard problems in the most exciting space in the world right now. We usually work in tight-knit, highly collaborative squads of 3-4 engineers. We often pair, or even mob on our tasks, and our credo is to succeed or fail together as a team. You don’t need any blockchain experience; you just need solid engineering principles, good communication skills, and a passion for learning about the future of digital asset ownership.
