Senior Full Stack Engineer

• Big Viking Games is hiring a Senior Full Stack Engineer to build AI-enabled products, workflows, tools, and systems that help turn creative direction into production-ready game content at scale
• This is a hands-on product engineering role for someone who can own a vertical end to end, from the data model and backend services to APIs, orchestration logic, human review workflows, and the user interface the team operates from
• You will not be working on a small slice of someone else’s codebase. You will be expected to take ambiguous goals, turn them into clear technical plans, build practical systems, and own the quality of the result
• You will build internal AI-enabled products, tools, systems, and workflows that help our teams create, review, approve, manage, and ship game content more efficiently. This may include:
• Tools that turn creative direction into structured production workflows
• AI-assisted content generation systems with human review and approval gates
• Internal products that help designers, artists, product managers, and live operations teams produce and manage content
• Data models, APIs, queues, orchestration layers, and UI surfaces that support repeatable workflows
• Agentic workflows that break complex production tasks into reliable, reviewable steps
• Systems that track inputs, generated outputs, approvals, revisions, quality checks, and production readiness
• Workflow automation that reduces manual work while keeping creative and quality standards high
• You will own the quality of what the system produces, not just the plumbing that moves data around
• Design, build, test, and maintain full stack applications that support AI-enabled game production workflows
• Own features end to end, including data modeling, backend logic, API design, frontend implementation, deployment, and ongoing improvement
• Build structured generation workflows that produce reliable, reviewable outputs from AI models
• Create human-in-the-loop review systems so teams can steer, approve, reject, edit, and improve generated content
• Translate ambiguous creative or operational goals into clear specifications, scoped plans, and production-ready systems
• Build internal tools that improve speed, consistency, visibility, and quality across content production workflows
• Partner with engineering, product, design, art, live operations, and leadership to understand workflow pain points and build practical solutions
• Implement approval steps, audit trails, retries, staged processing, idempotency, and other patterns required for reliable production systems
• Use AI coding agents and assistants as part of your daily workflow, while maintaining strong engineering judgment and code quality
• Review generated code, model outputs, workflow logic, and product behavior with a high bar for accuracy and usability
• Improve system reliability, observability, documentation, maintainability, and developer experience
• Contribute to a practical AI-first engineering culture focused on speed, quality, and measurable business impact
