As a Gameplay Engineer, you will join a small team and collaborate closely with some of the most talented developers in the industry to craft something truly special.

We believe that great games are made in creative environments where builds are always playable and teams can move fast and test as many ideas as possible.

- A good grasp of what good gameplay looks and feels like
- An interest in computer science and programming as a craft
- A problem-solving mindset and willingness to work in an iterative, fast-moving environment
- Fluent in English - our team comes from all over the world

Additionally one or some of these would be a great bonus

- Experience working on multiplayer games or shooters
- Experience working with Unreal Engine
- Ability to speak "design"
- A deep passion for games with significant hands-on experience as a player
- The ability to draw from personal gameplay experiences when developing
