Unreal Gameplay Systems Programmer
We’re a small, independent mobile games studio building creative play experiences in Unreal Engine. Our first project is a 3D digital dollhouse focused on self-expression, storytelling, and playful tools.
We’re audience first, collaborative, and driven by craft. We trust each other to do our best work, move fast when it matters, and learn from every risk we take.
Who You Are
You’re a team player who loves crafting creative experiences and connecting with players. You thrive in small teams where everyone pitches in, owns their part, and makes a visible impact.

Act with the team’s goals in mind and consider the ripple effects of your decisions.

Support and mentor teammates when they need a hand.
Spot what needs doing and take the initiative, even if it means stepping outside your comfort zone.
Balance quality with pragmatism, moving fast while thinking ahead.
Help keep momentum strong and meetings focused.
Bring an upbeat, “we’ve got this” attitude and a creative, problem-solving mindset to challenges.
Shift gear with purpose - we adapt when learning shows us a better way.
Share your learnings and challenges openly so everyone can grow together.
Above all, stay curious, collaborative, and committed to building something players will love.
On our team, everyone contributes to how we create, plan, and grow together. No matter your role, we count on each other to:
Take ownership of your learning and growth: stay curious, welcome feedback, and keep developing in your role.
Actively review and give feedback on others’ work with openness and respect.
Estimate and plan your work realistically and collaboratively.
