  • Some experience or at least definite interest in programming
  • Smart and quick to learn
  • A positive “can-do” attitude
  • Good teamwork and communication skills
  • Interest in video games and especially mobile games
  • Experience with Unity is appreciated, but not required

We offer you:

  • Exciting, fun - and successful - projects to work on.
  • Extremely talented and helpful colleagues. This is a once in a life-time learning opportunity!
  • Lots of power and responsibility.
  • Competitive salary and other benefits.
  • Relocation assistance as needed.
