Kerma Games is a next generation studio creating premium Slots and Live Casino experiences for the global iGaming market. We specialize in blending modern gameplay, cinematic design, and strong celebrity IPs to deliver next gen games with high engagement and broad player appeal.

Headquartered in Boston with operations in Monterrey, Barcelona, and Atlanta, we’re scaling rapidly.

We are seeking a Full Stack Senior Software Engineer (Games) to play a critical role in the design, development, and stewardship of our web-based games and gaming platforms.

  • Perform thorough code reviews with an emphasis on clarity, correctness, performance, and maintainability
  • Advocate for and implement best practices around:
  • Version control and branching strategies
  • Automated testing (unit, integration, and end-to-end)
  • Documentation and knowledge sharing

Infrastructure & Systems Thinking

  • Contribute to and review Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform
  • Collaborate on cloud-based architectures, CI/CD pipelines, and deployment workflows
  • Ensure systems are observable, reliable, and operable in production environment

Mentorship & Team Enablement

  • Act as a senior technical resource for the engineering team
  • Mentor junior and mid-level engineers through pairing, reviews, and technical guidance
  • Help engineers grow their skills in system design, debugging, and professional software practices
  • Model strong engineering judgment, communication, and ownership

Qualifications:

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, including senior-level responsibilities
  • Strong proficiency in TypeScript and Python
  • Deep understanding of:
  • Web application architectures
  • Client-server communication and web protocols
  • Data structures and algorithms
  • Experience building and maintaining production-grade frontend and backend systems
  • Solid knowledge of software design patterns and architectural principles
  • Experience with Infrastructure as Code and cloud-based systems
  • Proven ability to lead by influence, mentor others, and uphold engineering standards
  • Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience working in fast-moving or scaling engineering teams
  • Experience with containerized workloads and orchestration platforms
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills

This position is hybrid from our Boston HQ located next to South Station.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
