A bit about us:

Gamers spent more than $100 billion on in-game items last year. However, $0 of that went to other players – it went directly to huge free-to-play game studios. Until now, games have only sold licences for these in-game items with highly restricted rights. At Immutable, we're all about ownership: using blockchain technology to give players true and "immutable" ownership over the items they've worked so hard to acquire. Meaning they can trade, sell and utilise their digital items as they see fit. Alongside games, we build marketplaces and tools for these assets so that game developers can build fully-fledged economies within their games.

As a Full Stack Software Engineer, you will work in an elite team focused on taking our flagship game asset exchange "Immutable X" to as many players and gamers as possible. You'll help them build innovative growth features and incentive schemes to maximise this expansion. You'll have a lot of flexibility in terms of tools, technology and architecture: most of your goals will be product-driven rather than tech-driven.

You will be an active engineer on that team, personally working on both frontend and backend features, but you will also be involved in product design and development. You'll help the team estimate, prioritise and scope features, and contribute to product discussions at all stages of development.

If you're looking to work on a fun and iterative product, in a strong team, with a great deal of independence, this role is for you.

Technology stack:

We do need to you be able to work with our pre-existing stack:

-On the frontend, Angular 2+ or React, with strong CSS/SASS skills
-On the backend, either Golang or Node.js (with Typescript), Postgresql, SOA
-On the infrastructure, AWS, Github Actions and Shippable

It's desirable but not necessary for you to have blockchain development experience or developed application interfaces with blockchain. As long as you are willing to learn, then we can train you on this.


You will have the opportunity to:

  • Participate in team planning and product design sessions
  • Help estimate and prioritise proposed features
  • Iterate features quickly in response to customer feedback
  • Create tools which allow others on the Go-To-Market team to scale up
    • A bit about you:
  • Minimum of 2 + years of deep engineering experience as a full stack developer. You are comfortable working across a range of technologies and are flexible to adapt to the shifting demands of the role
  • Highly motivated to deliver a fantastic product to our users. You should take ownership of any problems faced by the team, and work effectively to eliminate them
  • Blockchain interested which could be development experience, usage experience or even more academic interest: your team will function most effectively if you understand the product well
  • Strategic mindset: What are we trying to do? What's the long term vision? Can we achieve this in a better way? You should be able to clearly articulate the strategic goals of the team to facilitate this
  • Strong communication skills enabling you to work closely with your team and a high degree of synchronisation about goals and strategy will allow us to work more smartly and efficiently
    • Some of the things we can offer you:

  • Competitive Salary and Employee Stock Options: Everyone in our team contributes to the success of our game-changing products, which is why we share all our wins company-wide. As we continue to succeed, stock options and a competitive salary mean you get to enjoy the upside!
