Lead Engineer; Mobile

Lead the engineering effort on EMERGENCY HQ
, a successful live mobile title. You’ll set technical direction for features and live‑ops, keep the game fast and stable across devices, and help a small team deliver with quality and speed.

• Own the technical roadmap for live features, systems, and events; scope with Product and Design and deliver to clear milestones.
• Lead engineers through mentoring, code reviews, and sensible standards; foster an ownership culture over micromanagement.
• Architect and implement gameplay, meta, and content pipelines that scale forlive‑ops (economy/progression hooks, events, reward systems).
• Maintain performance and stability targets (frame time, memory, crash‑free rate); profile and optimise for a wide device range.
• Own CI/CD and release health: build pipelines, automated checks, branch strategy, store submissions, hotfix flow.
• Integrate and maintain analytics/telemetry, remote config/feature flags, A/B testing, MMP/attribution (incl. SKAN) and IAP flows.
• Keep SDKs and platform requirements current (ad mediation, analytics, push, store policies for iOS/Android).
• Partner with QA on test strategy (automation where sensible) and raise the quality bar for every release.

• 5+ years in software engineering with 2+ years shipping mobile games in Unity/C#; proven live‑ops experience.
• Experience leading engineers or a squad; strong ownership, good planning, and clear communication.
• Solid grasp of mobile performance (profilers, GC/memory, async), asset/Addressable‑style content pipelines, and reliability practices.
• Comfort with CI/CD and version control (Git); release management and store submission know‑how.
• Familiarity with analytics/event schemas, remote config, A/B testing, iOS privacy/SKAN, and IAP receipt/entitlement flows.
• Professional English.

• Collaboration experience with backend/services teams (APIs, cloud functions, feature flags).
• Exposure to ad tech and mediation SDKs; interest in data‑informed experimentation.
• A feel for systems/gameplay design and player experience.

• Stability & success:
  EMERGENCY HQ has been live for 7 years and 2025 is our best year yet
  .
• Original game, great team: we build, own, and operate our own IP with a tight, collaborative crew.
• Ownership over micromanagement: we set clear goals and give you responsibility and autonomy to deliver results—support when you need it, freedom when you don’t.
• Great office in a vibrant Berlin neighbourhood (Friedrichshain) with plenty of home office possible.
