Devops Engineer jobs in Montreal

Devops Engineer

Devops Engineer As games begin to become more and more focused on online features, devops engineers become key to creating and maintaining the games infrastructure. Due to the way games are run, each individual user of a multiplayer or online game will have an instance of the game running locally that interacts with web services in the background. A devops engineer is responsible for making sure all of this works cohesively for all the players. Most devops developers will design and build the entire system themselves, either alone or with a team. This role is sometimes referred to as "Network Engineer" or "Web Services Engineer". A devops engineer's key roles are to create and maintain network systems for games with online components and solve problems for the design and development teams by using web services.

Montreal

Montreal, Quebec, Canada Montreal is the most populous municipality in the Canadian province of Quebec and the second-most populous municipality in Canada as a whole, after Toronto. Originally called Ville-Marie, or "City of Mary", it is named after Mount Royal, the triple-peaked hill in the heart of the city. The city is centred on the Island of Montreal, which took its name from the same source as the city, and a few much smaller peripheral islands, the largest of which is Île Bizard. It has a distinct four-season continental climate with warm to hot summers and cold, snowy winters. Enticed by generous tax subsidies provided by the Québec government, several major game companies have opened large studios in the city. The video game industry in Montreal is booming like never before. At present, it's the third largest in the world, playing host to such giants as Ubisoft, Eidos, Square Enix, Warner and Motive Studios (EA). In addition, there are over 200 independent studios in Montreal.
