Golang Developer (game server)
With over 8 billion downloads and 200+ games in our portfolio, we at SayGames think big. We don’t believe in bureaucracy or complex vertical structures—but we do believe in people and creative freedom. Our approach has propelled us into the top 3 publishers worldwide, and we have no plans to slow down.
We are a data-driven company, relying on analytics, cutting-edge technologies, and expertise. But our true secret lies in our people—their boldness and experience allow us to push boundaries, experiment, make mistakes, set trends, and uncover the secrets of success.
We are launching a new game project. The project is currently at an early stage: the game design is being shaped, the first technical decisions are being made, and the backend is only just beginning to be developed.
The backend is a key part of the system: it handles game logic, offers, progression, rewards, and interactions with the client. This is not about maintaining an existing framework, but about building a backend for a specific game from scratch, with significant influence over both the architecture and product decisions.
- Designing and developing the game backend from scratch
- Implementing game business logic: progression, levels, rewards, offers, etc.
- Working with requirements: clarifying them, proposing solutions, and so on
- Working with metrics
- 5+ years of professional experience with Go (Golang)
- Experience designing services from scratch, including architecture, code structure, technology selection, and component interactions
- Experience working with databases such as CockroachDB, ClickHouse, Aerospike, or similar technologies
- Experience working on product-driven teams and applications
- Understanding of metrics and event-tracking systems, both from a user perspective and from a system design perspective
- Understanding of scalability principles and building systems that operate reliably under high load
