Role
Who you are
- You’re not just experienced, you’ve shipped, scaled, and led. You want ownership, impact, and the challenge of building games and teams that perform at the highest level
- 7+ years of hands-on Unity experience on mobile games, with deep technical knowledge
- Proven leadership experience, managing and/or mentoring developers in remote, multicultural teams
- Strong shipping track record, with multiple casual mobile games released and operated
- End-to-end mastery of mobile game development, from pre-production and estimation to release and live operations
- High problem-solving bar, able to make clear decisions in fast-moving, ambiguous environments
- Strong product and market awareness, with a genuine obsession for casual games and industry trends
- Solid live game expertise, including Live Ops, A/B testing, gameplay systems, asset pipelines, and UI/UX
- Clear, direct communicator, able to align technical and non-technical stakeholders around shared goals
- Fluent in English, comfortable working in an international environment
- Contribution to the development and ongoing support of live games that have been globally released and sustained for over two years
What the job involves
- Build teams. Raise the bar. Ship games that last
- As we continue to grow our internal Studio, we are looking for a Unity Team Lead to own the performance, structure, and technical excellence of a Unity development team working on our flagship mobile games
- Working closely with our Product and Tech Director, you will be accountable for people, delivery, and technical direction. Your mission is clear: turn strong games into long-term, high-performing live titles by building a team that executes fast, clean, and at scale
- This is a leadership role first. You will stay close to the product and the code, but your real impact will come from setting standards, making decisions, and pushing the team to deliver at the highest level
- Lead People. Build Excellence: Lead, mentor, and scale a high-performing Unity team by sharing best practices, coaching junior developers, and actively supporting hiring to build long-term excellence
- Own Delivery. Drive Results: Own planning, effort estimation, and execution in coordination with other leads, breaking down complex topics and ensuring optimal resource allocation aligned with project goals
- Set the Technical Bar: Enforce a robust, reusable, and scalable codebase, and set high standards for mobile performance and optimisation across devices
- Partner with Product: Think Long Term: Propose new concepts and technical solutions informed by market trends, and translate product ambition into sustainable, long-term game systems
- Collaborate at Scale: Work closely with tech leaders and cross-functional teams to improve production pipelines, share standards, and drive technical innovation across the company
- You will be working in English with our international team of top-tier talents from 35+ countries
Our take
Mobile gaming continues to grow in popularity, and more and more big companies and franchises are publishing their offerings for download, but this has made it extremely hard for small games, with small teams, to stand out. Homa Games builds tools for developers to build successful mobile games, including publishing and monetising their products.
Homa Games is the world’s leading platform for mobile game creation and publishing and is one of the companies driving the industry towards a data-driven and systematic approach. The company helps developers build faster, with testing tools; create more popular games through market intelligence; and remove financial risk by offering smart in-app advertisements and distribution management.
Since 2018, Homa Games has attracted one billion downloads for its published games. The company has raised an impressive level of funding that will be used to improve its tech stack and expand into web3 and NFTs, and it has acquired and partnered with other technologies towards this next goal. Ultimately, Homa Games wants to build a universe of interconnected games with virtual worlds and characters owned by creators and players, an ambitious task that it will be interesting to see if they can achieve.
