Senior Platform Engineer hos Toca Boca i Stockholm

What you'll be doing

Drive the full lifecycle of Central Tech platform services—from greenfield development to optimizing high-throughput backend services handling millions of active players.

Serve as an internal platform champion. You'll deeply understand the needs of our game teams, building the tools, frameworks, and infrastructure that make their workflows seamless and efficient.

Lead the evolution of our cloud environment, promoting best-in-class workflows using Terraform, Docker, and orchestration platforms (ECS, EKS/Kubernetes).

Define and implement robust monitoring, alerting, and logging strategies (using tools like Datadog) alongside secure AWS practices to guarantee a resilient, top-tier platform.

Act as a natural knowledge sharer. You'll coach other developers in cloud infrastructure best practices, raising the technical bar for the entire organization.

Is This You?

Strong professional experience with AWS at scale, ideally powering non-web consumers like mobile apps, APIs, and high-concurrency backend services.

Deep hands-on experience in an Infrastructure as Code (IaC) environment (Terraform, etc.) and container orchestration (Docker, ECS, Kubernetes/EKS).

Solid production-level experience with TypeScript for backend development.

A great understanding of databases, including both Relational and NoSQL database architectures (the larger the data volume, the better!).

Experience configuring and working with modern observability suites (such as Datadog).

A natural instinct for knowledge sharing, with a proven track record of coaching junior engineers and helping teams adopt new tools.

Excellent communication skills, with the ability to translate open-ended, non-technical requirements into robust, elegant technical solutions.
