Job Description

What will you do here?

• Program the game according to the design specifications and the programming rules already in place
• Integrate all elements of the game, including engine, gameplay, user interface, graphics/animations and sound
• Contribute to the game’s design specifications and technical specifications
• Work with the team to improve the production process and help in establishing best-practices
• Work alongside colleagues from all the other departments of the game team (2d and 3d graphic designers, game and level designers, the backend team)
• Collaborate with other Gameloft studios around the world
• A game is good when it is fun and stable, so we invest a lot of effort into fine-tuning and improving

How are you going to work and when can you start?

• You will work full time, 8 hours a day, with a declared employment contract.
• You can start 9 in the morning, but if that’s too early, no one will mention anything if you start before 10:30
• Your direct lead will be the lead developer and the colleagues you work most closely with will be: other developers, 2d and 3d artists and game designers.
• The sooner you can start, the better! Of course, if you have a notice period, we will wait for you

What will happen to you on the first day and in the first 3 months?

• On your first day, we will introduce you to everyone on the team. The game’s producer will tell you more details you about the game you will be working on, while the lead developer will tell you what the team is currently working on.

• Also on the first day you will receive your onboarding plan, which gives you details about the things you will be doing and what’s expected of you over the next 3 months

• Right from the start you will also find out who will be your assigned buddy, the colleague who will help you during your first few months to have a great time here. You can ask them anything at any time, be it things about the project or about what’s the best place to eat at in the area (there are many cool places to eat at nearby)

• During your trial period, we will continue to support you and give you feedback on your work. And of course, we’d love it if you also shared your opinion and suggestions with us.

• Confident programming skills in C++
• Creative problem solving skills
• Conversational level English for daily communication with foreign colleagues

• Experience in game development
• Experience in mobile development
• Knowledge of client-server architecture

Additional Information

What will happen when you apply?

You can apply with your English CV. We will look at what projects and technologies you have worked on so far.
If you have worked on your own on a game or applications, send us your link and we will be happy to check it out!
No cover letter is required. But if you usually play mobile, you can write down what :-)

At Gameloft, we believe in diversity, so no applicant will be discriminated against based on criteria such as gender, age, gender identity, religion, nationality, etc ...

Your CV will be reviewed by our Studio Manager and our Lead developers and if they find it relevant, one of our colleagues from HR will contact you.

Next there will be a home test, followed by a chat with one of our HR colleagues and later with our lead developers. They will give you specific details about the job and you can ask them anything you are interested in knowing about working here.

The whole process usually takes 2-3 weeks, but in the current global situation it could be slightly longer.

If the test fails, we will notify you within 2-3 days. You will certainly receive feedback from us about the process, but you can also track the status of your application through our application system.

Looking forward to hearing from you,
