Job Details
At Mojang Studios, the creators of Minecraft, we are on a mission to build a better world through the power of play.
Why play? Well, play is at the heart of everything we do. It's the blocky backbone of our games, the core of our development philosophy, and even the origin of our name. From the relentless experimentation of our endlessly inspiring community to the classrooms where Minecraft has become an essential teaching tool, play is the bedrock of our existence.
We enable millions to create and play together, connect people across the globe, and foster a community that is among the most active and passionate in the world. Our community is global and incredibly diverse. When we are developing anything within our franchise, we keep this in mind. We want everyone to not only feel included in Minecraft, but also to see themselves in what we make . Our goal is for the Mojang Studios team to be as diverse as our community.
The Minecraft Marketplace Services team powers the services behind Minecraft's Marketplace, one of the main revenue drivers for the entire game. These services need to scale to support hundreds of millions of Minecraft players helping them find content they will enjoy playing. Alongside Minecraft's continually increasing player base, our robust creator ecosystem continues to grow the number of items in the catalog. We are looking for ways to personalize the marketplace and provide recommendations to the player. The services run on Kubernetes with Linux containers utilizing many common Azure and open-source technologies.
The Software Engineer II role takes end-to-end ownership for development and quality of products and services that delight customers and add s strategic value to Minecraft. As a full stack developer, you evaluate requirements, estimate costs, design and implement products and services.

You manage and improve the engineering process, manage risks, dependencies, and compromises, and integrate software into broader ecosystems and/or products and services.
You will work with peers across disciplines (Art, Design, Production, and Test) to build robust features on a predictable schedule and at high quality. You identify technology opportunities, risks, and prototyping new techniques to create high quality player-focused games.
Microsoft's mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more.
