На які завдання (обов'язки)?

• Creating and supporting core modules

  • Moving code (e.g., map logic, metagameplay) to the core area of responsibility through auditing, refactoring, and separation into modules.

  • Creating a permissions system based on configurable conditions for managing access to game functions.

• Redesign and refactoring:

  • Developing universal mechanisms for in-game special offers, promotions, buffs, and effects — allowing feature teams to configure specific cases without having to make core edits.

  • Refining the HotReload system (which allows us to seamlessly update configurations and functionality in different environments).

  • Designing an "instances" system (separate locations/scenes/subsystems) with special game rules.

• Optimization:

  • Implementing client metrics (SLI) and defining goals (SLO) to ensure stability and high performance.

• Accelerating the integration of new mechanics:

  • Identifying typical scenarios and migrating repetitive code into reusable core components.

  • Creating a convenient API and clear documentation (guides, FAQs, and examples).

• Maintaining core code quality:

  • Decomposition, reviewing code, and refactoring large fragments without the need for huge disruptive changes.
