What are the responsibilities and job description for the Associate DevOps Engineer position at Tencent?
Welcome to Lightspeed LA (Irvine), the first U.S.-based, AAA game development studio for Tencent Games, where we are focused on building open-world games that emphasize an ambitious living world, sophisticated player-driven gameplay, and mature, thoughtful storytelling!
Why join Lightspeed LA (Irvine)?
Creation is the soul of our studio. For us, it’s not only about the exciting, new AAA open world game we’re developing, but also about team values and studio culture.

- We encourage the showing of work that’s still in progress
- We don’t attack or question unfinished work, we celebrate its promise
