Job Requirements / Description
Company Description
Unchained Entertainment is an independent video game development studio founded in March 2011, in Fairfax, Virginia. The studio embodies an "open office" collaborative process where all team members are expected to contribute to the design and the development process. The team has built a next-generation engine tentatively titled the "Unchained Engine" which is powering their two games in development - Camelot Unchained, a niche RvR old-school MMORPG (currently in Beta) and Final Stand: Ragnarok, a PvE looter-slasher in which teams of any size fight against hordes of NPCs (currently in very Early Access on Steam).
Job Description
Unchained Entertainment is looking for two Mid-level Gameplay Engineers to help create Camelot Unchained. You'll work primarily within our server code to implement features from combat to crafting to guilds. You can also expect to make forays into client code to expose those features to the user, although you can leave the hardcore engine development and final UI polish to others.
Qualifications
Big Advantages
Note: Unchained Entertainment is hiring for a broad range of positions on a growing team. We have definite skill and task needs, but the eventual division of tasks within the team will depend on the eventual team members. If you're an outstanding and talented individual whose qualifications fall halfway between two of our listings, we'd still like to hear from you. All candidates must have excellent written and verbal communication skills. We are an emphatically equal-opportunity employer.
You should be aware that phishing scams attempt to exploit people seeking new employment. Unchained Entertainment does not send unsolicited emails and we never use telegram to communicate with potential employees. Always carefully check the sender address in any email you might receive from a potential employer. Stay safe out there!
