At Demonware, a member of the Activision family of studios, we are looking for an experienced Database Platform Specialist to join our team.

We provide technology to other internal teams to configure and deploy their services & game titles. As part of our move from a self-serve to a semi-managed model, you would be helping to evolve this model as we make more use of cloud technologies and help minimize our customers' operational overhead.

Your primary focus will be on developing, maintaining and evolving our database platform, improving our semi-managed service model, and adapting it for cloud technologies. You will work with technologies such as Kubernetes, Vitess, and Redis.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Develop, maintain, and evolve the database platform, improve our semi-managed service model, and adapt it for cloud technologies
  • Liaise with teams who run database technology, ensuring their requirements are met in a timely manner
  • Drive the direction of our software and tooling architecture, taking into account our dedication to maximum reliability for players and internal customers alike
  • Evaluate all components for scalability and maintainability
  • Owning features, components, and tooling being built
  • Contribute to and review designs and code from other team members
  • Support customer-facing teams as they roll-out new features to game-studio partners, and provide support and consultancy to colleagues around the world
  • Partner with engineers to problem-solve with our technology, and provide an excellent customer experience
  • Provide mentorship on standard processes for database tooling development and integration

In return for your expertise, we offer a competitive salary range of $120,000 - $180,000 CAD annually, depending on experience and performance. This role may also be eligible for incentive compensation.

The estimated annual base pay is in British Columbia, Canada, where our main office is located. Actual amounts may vary depending on location and individual circumstances.
