Senior Engineer

Scopely is looking for a Senior Engineer to serve on and elevate our new casual game, Monopoly GO!  team in Barcelona on a hybrid basis.

At Scopely, we care deeply about what we do and want to inspire play every day - whether in our work environments alongside our talented colleagues or through our deep connections with our communities of players. We are a global team of game lovers who are developing, publishing and innovating the mobile games industry, connecting millions of people around the world daily. 

MONOPOLY GO! is a global phenomenon and the biggest mobile game launch in history, captivating millions of players worldwide.

What You Will Do

• Contribute to the design, development, and scaling of gameplay systems, tools, and pipelines for Monopoly GO!, one of the world's most successful mobile games
• Own features and systems from design through release and live operation
• Collaborate with designers, artists, data analysts, and other engineers to bring ideas to life and continuously improve the player experience
• Build clean, performant, testable code across a variety of systems, including gameplay, LiveOps tooling, backend integration, and more
• Improve content pipelines and automate workflows to help other crafts ship content safely
• Investigate live-game incidents and unfamiliar issues, identify root causes, and turn the learning into better monitoring and fewer repeat failures
• Prototype new features and systems, and use AI to improve how the team works, from everyday workflows to collaboration and delivery
• Mentor less experienced engineers through code review, pairing, and feedback
• Learn from (and with) a world-class engineering org, while helping shape the future of how we work

What We're Looking For

• Solid programming fundamentals in any language and a passion for making things players love
• Curiosity about how AI can improve creativity and productivity, whether it's prompt workflows, automation, or integrating AI tools into content pipelines
• You think like a systems designer: how things scale, how they evolve, how to keep them clean and efficient
• Experience with (or interest in learning) Unity and C#, plus relevant tools like Git, Docker, or cloud services
• Experience with Unity asset bundles or Addressables, asset importing, content pipelines, editor tooling, and validations
• Familiarity with backend systems, data pipelines, or infrastructure and observability
• A structured, calm approach to unfamiliar technical problems, including under time pressure
• An automation and tooling mindset
• Ability to turn requirements into clear technical specifications and explain decisions to non-technical colleagues
• A unique lens, whether that's a self-taught dev, a career hopper, or even an entirely new creative discipline. The more unconventional the better

Bonus Points

• Backend experience with game services, APIs, and data stores, and confidence working across the client–server boundary
• Contributions to creative or technical projects: games, tools, mods, art, code, anything you're proud of
• Experience with live-operations configuration, content scheduling, or remote configuration in games
• Experience leading technical work across connected systems or multiple crafts
• Prior exposure to shipping live games, but we're happy to teach you that part
