We are EA:

And we make games – how cool is that? In fact, we entertain millions of people across the globe 24/7 with the most amazing and immersive interactive software in the industry. But making games and delivering a player experience is hard work. That’s why we employ the most creative, resourceful and passionate people in the industry.

The Challenge Ahead:

Modern video games rely on many different services behind the scenes. From matchmaking, marketplace, and social features to anti-cheat detection, leaderboards, and server-side physics calculations. This ecosystem exposes new operational challenges with every new game launch.

The Impact you’ll make:

Whether it is a quick game over lunch or meeting friends online at a specific time to play a few matches, when people want to play games -- we want to be there for them.

That can only be done with a team of great engineers, some automation, inter-team collaboration and at least a little fun.
