- Develop new features for our tools to empower our internal customers to develop and operate their games more efficiently,
- Develop reusable libraries for use within the Web Tools team’s projects to enable us to deliver more value to our users,
- Participate in technical discussions within the team regarding architecture, UX and best practices,
- Work closely with our data engineering and backend teams to develop APIs and tools for use by game team members.

Please note: Research has shown that some under-represented groups in the gaming industry (eg: women) tend to apply only if they meet every single requirement. Here at Wooga, the desire to learn and the willingness to solve problems are more important to us than your experience on paper. We encourage you to apply even if you do not think that you tick all the boxes - thinking outside of such boxes and embracing the diversity of mindsets and backgrounds is what we believe makes our teams thrive.

- Shape the future! Challenge the status quo and team up with a diverse group of experts (over 50 nationalities!) working on crafting the world’s best games.
