We believe that if we hire you, you’re experienced enough to deliver. Our studio produces and manages all content, therefore, we want each individual to have ownership in what we are creating. We are an ego-free studio looking for great talent to compliment our existing staff.

Requirements:

• 3+ years of demonstrable experience in C/C++

• Experience with low-level 3D programming

• Highly motivated, self starter, creative thinker

We encourage you to send code that will show your best work, and would suggest avoiding linked-list implementations, matrix transformations, lightweight DirectX “wrappers”, and the like, as those samples tend not to give a clear idea of your abilities.
