Electronic Arts creates next-level entertainment experiences that inspire players and fans around the world. Here, everyone is part of the story. Part of a community that connects across the globe. A place where creativity thrives, new perspectives are invited, and ideas matter. A team where everyone makes play happen.

Just 13 miles south of Manchester and a 15-minute train journey, is the attractive market town of Wilmslow. Here amongst the boutique shops and independent cafes and bars is the stunning Playdemic studio. Acquired by EA in 2021, Playdemic is home to the top 10 grossing, BAFTA-winning mobile smash – Golf Clash. Having opened at the beginning of 2020, our award-winning, bespoke studio space offers conventional desk space and indulgent breakout areas, meeting rooms and alternative workspaces. The office has been ridgeline-designed to create an environment that encourages and allows our team to do their very best work.

The Golf Clash Team is searching for an experienced Software Engineering Leader with a primary background in Server Programming to provide technical leadership across our online systems while line-managing a small group of server engineers. Reporting to the Game Technical Director, you'll architect and deliver scalable backend features for a live mobile title, own and evolve our CI/CD and deployment infrastructure, and partner with design, production, client, QA and CS to ship high-quality features safely and at pace. You will blend hands-on engineering with elements typical of an Associate TD (technical direction, architecture, cross-domain planning) and selected aspects of Software Engineering Management (people leadership, stakeholder alignment, process improvement).

This role is located at our Wilmslow-based office, working in a hybrid capacity, including 3 days in office.
