Summary

AWS GameLift / Backend Developer (Long-Term) I'm looking for someone to take full responsibility for the online infrastructure of my Unreal Engine multiplayer games. I want to focus on making games. You focus on the backend. Current tasks AWS GameLift setup and maintenance. Dedicated servers. Matchmaking. Player authentication. Leaderboards. Backend APIs (Lambda/API Gateway). Database (DynamoDB or equivalent). Server deployment and updates. Monitoring and troubleshooting. Future tasks Steam integration. Epic Games integration. Backend for DLC, cosmetics and in-game purchases. Scalable online services as the project grows. I will send you updated dedicated server builds. Your job is to deploy them and keep the backend working. I do not pay hourly. I prefer fixed-price milestones or project-based payments. Tell me your budget for the initial setup. I'm looking for a long-term collaborator who will grow with the project as it becomes commercially successful. One important requirement: I want to understand everything you build. Document the architecture, explain the setup, and transfer the knowledge to me over time so I always remain in control of the project and I'm never dependent on a single developer. If you have shipped multiplayer games using AWS GameLift, send examples of your work and briefly explain your experience.
