Game developers repeatedly say that multiplayer game creation remains one of their hardest challenges; balancing ease-of-use with performance and flexibility remains unsolved. As a result, we’ve seen far too little innovation in multiplayer games over the last decade, while creativity in single-player games has flourished.

You will be given the freedom to drive large initiatives in this area aimed at improving everything from scale testing to environment replication. Help us build a new suite of customer-facing services and tools, from orchestrating tens of thousands of automated clients to code analyzers to identify common issues .
