Full description
About Us Akliz is a game server hosting company running tens of thousands of servers. Gamers have many options, but when they want the highest performance, best support, and a wide selection, they choose us. We believe in building real technology instead of using cookie-cutter solutions, because we want to innovate in this space. That's why we made our own dashboard and tools from the ground up. We're all gamers who want the experience to actually be good for ourselves, our friends, and our families who play and that means all of our users are along for the ride.
We're a small remote team that values ownership and clear communication. We care about quality and back it up with strong support that stays with people from signup for as long as they need us. We look for the same attention to quality and care in the people who join our team.
Key Responsibilities
You'll work on our dashboard and marketing sites alongside our small frontend team. We all work together on the same priorities in sprints using a design-driven process. You'll take real ownership of features from planning through code review and help ship things that gamers actually want to use.
