Gameplay Engineer (World of Warships)

О вакансии

Wargaming is looking for a Gameplay Engineer to work in the World of Warships Meta Team in our Belgrade office.

The Meta Team develops and maintains long-term, player-facing systems, including meta-gameplay activities, player progression and property, combat missions, achievements, and statistics. The work spans the game client and supporting backend systems, focusing on meta-gameplay rather than moment-to-moment combat.

Most feature and business logic is written in Python. We value clear thinking, the ability to understand unfamiliar systems, and a willingness to learn more than experience with any particular framework. You will join through a proven onboarding path and progressively take ownership of feature delivery in a large, established system.

Что предстоит делать

• Own features from requirements clarification and design through implementation, release, and maintenance
• Develop and maintain meta-gameplay features across client and backend systems
• Work with persistent state, asynchronous flows, and integrations
• Investigate bugs, state inconsistencies, and production issues
• Collaborate with game design, product, QA, production, and engineering teams

Кого мы ищем

• Practical software development experience, professional or through substantial self-directed projects
• Ability to understand and safely modify unfamiliar code
• Understanding of data modelling, stateful and asynchronous applications
• Ability to clarify requirements and communicate technical findings clearly
• Self-directed learning, curiosity, and strong communication skills
• Technical English for documentation, code, and comments
• Readiness to work in Belgrade, Serbia

Technology stack

• Game server/client development: Python 2.7, proprietary pipelines
• Web development: Python 3.10+, asyncio

Что поможет выделиться

• Experience with FastAPI or Django
• Knowledge of Golang or C++
• Understanding of frontend development with JavaScript/TypeScript
• Experience maintaining long-lived production systems
• Experience diagnosing concurrency, state, or integration issues
• Experience with generated code or schema-driven systems
• A game mod, private server, bot, emulator, or reverse-engineering project

We are looking forward to welcoming specialists to the team. We are ready to mentor you and help with everything you may need to succeed in the role.

Формат работы

• Hybrid (3 days of work from the office).
• This role isn't eligible for relocation & immigration support.

Условия и льготы

Benefits and perks are tailored to the local market and culture. Our benefits in Belgrade include:

• Additional vacation days based on years of service at Wargaming: up to 5 days on top of the statutory minimum
• Additional paid time off (5 Personal Days, Birthday Leave, Marriage Leave, Compassionate Leave)
• Sick Leave Compensation, Maternity Leave Benefits
