DevOps / Backend Engineer (Junior to Mid-Level) – Egofold
Snail Games USA is a global developer and publisher of interactive digital entertainment, dedicated to creating innovative and immersive gaming experiences. Since 2009, Snail Games has been committed to pushing the boundaries of technology, creativity, and interactive entertainment.
As part of our continued investment in emerging technologies, Snail Games is expanding its capabilities in artificial intelligence, intelligent systems, and advanced software development.
One of these initiatives is Egofold, an AI-focused technology initiative within Snail Games that develops Non-Human Players (NHPs)—intelligent AI agents designed to perceive, learn, make decisions, and interact with video games much like human players.
Unlike traditional scripted game AI, NHPs are designed to learn from experience and adapt across different games, providing a common AI foundation for a range of interactive products and services.
Through Egofold, Snail Games combines AI research with practical engineering to explore new applications for intelligent agents and AI-driven technologies.
Snail Games USA is seeking a hands-on Backend / DevOps Engineer to join our engineering team supporting the Egofold AI initiative.
In this role, you will design, develop, and maintain the backend services, APIs, and supporting infrastructure that power AI-enabled applications, intelligent agents, and simulation environments.
This is an individual contributor position within a small, fast-moving engineering team where developers take ownership of their work—from understanding requirements and designing solutions through implementation, testing, deployment, and ongoing maintenance.
Your primary focus will be backend development, with additional responsibilities supporting cloud infrastructure, deployment automation, and DevOps workflows. You will collaborate closely with Snail Games' AI engineers and researchers to transform evolving technologies into reliable, functional products.
We are looking for a resourceful engineer who enjoys solving technical challenges, works independently, and adapts quickly to changing priorities. The ideal candidate values practical execution, takes initiative, and is comfortable contributing across technical disciplines without requiring constant oversight.
This position offers the opportunity to contribute directly to Snail Games' growing AI technology capabilities while helping establish scalable and reliable engineering foundations for future products.
