Original posting

Dots - Game Design Studio | Staff Engineer | NYC | Onsite | Full time Dots is a mobile game design studio in NYC. Our games are beautifully executed from a graphic design, game design, and technological perspective. Our aim is to create experiences that do the little things extremely well. This results in a minimalist experience that has all the things you need and love, but none of the things you don't. At Dots this approach is present in all verticals, and engineering is no exception. This is particularly true of any backend engineering position. We're looking for a Staff Engineer with 10+ years of experience who will join the backend team. Your strengths are as an individual contributor, but you are a natural leader and mentor as well. In this role, you will touch many parts of the business, from creation of game services to iteration on our custom continuous integrations system, to optimization of our experimentation system, to the creation of tools that aid all other parts of the company. We love to create tools and services that delight our players AND our colleagues alike. We do this by having a solid roadmap of features, products, and tools that have the largest impact, implementing the minimal "lovable" offering, and iterating on that offering as need and usage increases. By approaching our workload in this way, we pay attention to what matters most, and are able to create real, discernible impact immediately.
