Full-Stack Developer: Browser Games (TypeScript, PixiJS, Distributed Systems)

We build browser-based games with real-time gameplay, engaging mechanics, and infrastructure that has to hold up under scale. We're looking for a full-stack developer who's equally comfortable in the frontend rendering loop and in the backend systems that keep everything in sync. You'll be working across game logic, mechanic implementation, and the distributed backend that powers it with room to shape architectural decisions rather than just execute tickets. Building game mechanics and interactive frontend experiences with PixiJS and TypeScript Working on distributed system components, real-time state, event handling. Integrating with existing game engines and platform infrastructure Collaborating closely with designers, artists, and other developers to ship features end-to-end What we're looking for Strong TypeScript proficiency across both frontend and backend Hands-on experience with PixiJS or similar 2D rendering frameworks Experience implementing game mechanics, state machines, timing, animation loops, input handling. NestJS experience and a solid grasp of modular backend architecture. Experience with distributed systems, WebSockets, real-time synchronization, message queues, scaling patterns. Comfort with AI-assisted development workflows (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) we build with these tools daily and expect the same. Good communication and a bias toward shipping Bonus points Experience with browser-based multiplayer games or real-time interactive apps. Familiarity with Redis, Postgres, and event-driven backends. Prior work on games involving live sessions or session-based mechanics Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, or similar deployment tooling How to apply Send your GitHub or portfolio along with a short note about a game or system you've built that you're proud of and how you approached it. If AI-assisted development is part of your workflow, we'd love to hear how you use it.
