Senior / Principal DevOps Engineer

About the role

We are developing Pixel Gun 2, a global multiplayer shooter with real-time PvP and cross-regional infrastructure.

For us, DevOps is part of the gameplay experience.
Latency, stability, and scalability directly affect how the game feels for players.

We are looking for a Senior / Principal DevOps / SRE Engineer who can build and operate game server infrastructure, launch new regions quickly, and make decisions based on real production and player metrics.

What you will do

• Design, build, and evolve Kubernetes-based infrastructure for game servers.

• Work with game server orchestration (Agones or similar solutions).

• Operate infrastructure across dev / stage / production environments.

• Launch and scale infrastructure in new regions worldwide.

• Contribute to multi-region and multi-cloud architecture.

• Optimize infrastructure for latency and real-time workloads.

• Improve automation, CI/CD, and developer self-service.

• Maintain strong observability: metrics, logs, alerting, incident response.

• Collaborate closely with engineers, game designers, and product teams.

What we expect

• Hands-on production experience with Kubernetes.

• Experience with or strong understanding of Agones (or similar).

• Solid knowledge of Linux, networking, and system performance.

• Experience working with multiple cloud providers (AWS, GCP, and/or others).

• Ability to choose infrastructure based on region, latency, and load, not habit.

• Experience with monitoring and logging (Prometheus, Grafana, or equivalents).

• Scripting and automation skills (Bash, Python, or Go).

• Understanding of GitOps / IaC principles.

• Ownership mindset and comfort working with ambiguity.

Nice to have

• Experience launching or operating infrastructure in China.

• Background in real-time multiplayer or shooter games.

• Running Kubernetes at scale (multi-cluster, autoscaling).

• SRE mindset toward reliability and incident management.

• Interest in growing toward infrastructure leadership.

Why Cubic Games

• A globally scaled multiplayer project with real production challenges.

• Infrastructure decisions that directly impact gameplay.

• Freedom to influence architecture and technical direction.

• Growth of responsibility together with the project.

• A team where DevOps is a true partner to product and engineering.
