Back End Developer

For our Sparkling team we are looking for an experienced and allround Backend Developer who understands data systems and cloud infrastructure.

Who we are

Sparkling Society is a global player with multiple well known mobile games as City Island Series. Titles independently developed from idea to publication, over 180 million downloads worldwide, and a fast-growing multidisciplinary team of visionary experts.

The foundation on which we start building our games is our culture: motivated, focused and constructive. This creates the right conditions for our agile multidisciplinary teams to truly sparkle. We all have the same goal: to help our players flee from their busy lives for a minute and relax, just by picking up their mobile device.
