Coding features is of course your bread and butter,but you'll put on your designer hat and make a ton of calls on what goes into, and what doesn’t go into, the game. You're someone who likes to decide what to do with the people you work with rather than being told what to do from above and create tremendous impact on a small team.\nOur game programmers are mostly generalists, so you can work on lots of different areas of the game. It’s important that you take pride in your work and know what it means to take responsibility and deliver quality and fun to players. You are comfortable taking a feature from a vague idea on a post-it to a fully working and polished implementation.\nWe offer you a chance to join a team of professionals where talent feeds talent. We do not believe in bureaucracy or convoluted processes. Game development is a team sport, so we work together to achieve the best results. We trust each other’s skills and value each other’s work. All of us are driven by the amazing opportunity to make a game played by millions of players better and better. If this sounds exciting to you, then you might just be the person we are looking for!\nWhat You'll Be Doing\nCraft great high-quality features and tech that help players enjoy our games more\n\nBe passionate about the game and contribute design ideas to help it be better\n\nWrite robust code to be used by millions of players\n\nWork closely with the team on shared goals while individually delivering complete work\n\nWhat You Have\nBroad understanding of games programming\n\nStrong, professional experience using C++\n\nEqually capable building on top of existing code as creating new systems\n\nPassion to learn new skills and technology\n\nPassion for games\n\nA self-starter approach to use AI: you've found ways to use it in your day-to-day work, you experiment, figure things out and bring the same energy to every new challenge.\n\nWould Be Nice if You Also Have\nMobile development experience on iOS or Android\n\nExperience creating or working on a live-service title\n\nExperience with real-time, multiplayer games\n\nAbility to deeply optimize code for performance\n\nDeep experience in any of the following areas: mobile UI, gameplay, modern graphics tech, live-ops events\n\nWhere You'll Be\nThis role can be based either in our Helsinki or London Studio.\nThere will be some travel expectations with this role to help build relationships, as stakeholders are based in both locations.\n---\nThat's it about the role!

Totally optional, but a highly recommended read. \nOnce you're ready to apply, just send us your application through the form on the bottom of the page. \n---\nAbout Supercell\nSupercell is a games company from Helsinki, Finland, with offices also in San Francisco, Seoul, Shanghai, and London. You might know us as the makers of Hay Day, Clash of Clans, Boom Beach, Clash Royale, and Brawl Stars. Our mission is to create great games that as many people as possible play for years and that are remembered forever.\nSo, how do we make great games? By putting together the best teams and giving them the freedom and independence to succeed. And by taking risks, failing, sharing learnings, and killing lots of projects.\nHey, You Might Love It Here!\nIndependent cells and trust are at the core of our culture. But it takes more than that to make great games. We take good care of our people, providing them with the compensation, work environment, and resources they need to succeed while having fun along the way.\nYou Are Not Your Job Title ™\nHere, you won’t need to focus on chasing titles or climbing ladders. Internally, our job titles don’t include prefixes like Senior, Junior, Principal, or Director. Recognition isn’t tied to your title, as it doesn't define the impact you can have around here.\nBenefits and Compensation\nLuring you in with glitter, glamour, and gems isn't what we're about. We want you to enjoy your time here fully, so we structure our compensation and benefits with that in mind. It starts with perceiving you as a human being, not a resource.\nRelocation? Yes!\nNo matter where you’re moving from, our dedicated mobility team and partners will support you throughout your move. We’ll ensure the process is as smooth as possible for you and anyone joining you - whether they’re family members of the human or animal kind!\nNot Sure if You Should Apply?\nMany candidates with great skills and experience second-guess themselves. The bar is high, but if this role excites you, apply! We’re here to help you succeed. Also, we're happy to learn about any specific accommodations you may need to fully engage in our recruitment process.\nWishing you all the best,\nThe Supercell Recruitment team","description_format":"text","description_chars":5274,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":true,"industries":["Mobile Games","Game Development"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-11T14:37:35Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":87,"reasons":["conf:3","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-12T10:38:37Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/supercell-senior-game-programmer-hay-day-2","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/supercell-senior-game-programmer-hay-day-2.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-13T13:21:35Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":26808,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-14T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":52311},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=52311"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fsupercell-senior-game-programmer-hay-day-2"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"free","price":{"credits":0,"usd":0},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fsupercell-senior-game-programmer-hay-day-2"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fsupercell-senior-game-programmer-hay-day-2"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/supercell-senior-game-programmer-hay-day-2\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fsupercell-senior-game-programmer-hay-day-2"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":4073784}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"supercell.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":4073784},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
