Vile Monarch, a hard rock games studio from Warsaw, is looking for someone who remains sensitive in any case. Doesn’t matter if it’s upper, lower, or camel... Currently more than 30 Monarchs reign in the studio, including veterans (who worked on This War of Mine, The Witcher series, Dying Light or Hard West), that in 5 years shipped 4 successful games, conquering PC, Android, iOS, PS4, Xbox One and Switch.

• Crush Your Enemies - multiplatform bite-sized RTS
• Oh...Sir!! The Insult Simulator - hit party game based on building absurd sentences
• Oh...Sir! Hollywood Roast - a spin-off in the world of film
• Weedcraft Inc - ambitious tycoon game about the marijuana industry

Our philosophy? Let’s make fresh things - of different size, for different platforms, in different genres, but always surprising. There’s no idea that’d be TOO crazy for us. Currently we’re working on 2 bigger, unannounced titles: one of them is a 3D management strategy game which is in the late pre-production phase and the other is an ambitious 2D project already developed in full swing. The former is where an experienced code wizard is needed. He or she would be responsible for setting up and developing complex gameplay systems.

• Experience in optimizing, profiling and debugging
• Discipline and self-reliance, organized work style
• Very good English, both spoken and written
• Willingness to work full-time in Warsaw
• Love for games, knowledge of various platforms and genres

• Technical degree
• Speciality in gameplay programming
• Experience in graphics programming (shaders)
• Knowledge of Dependency Injection

We offer

• Stable full-time job with flexible work hours
• Working in a comfortable, air-conditioned office close to a metro station (Dworzec Gdański). Bonus: it’s a 23rd floor, so the view is stunning.
