Are you an experienced legal professional well-versed in the constantly evolving areas of technology, IP licensing & privacy? Ready to join one of Europe's fastest growing game companies?
If yes, Metacore could be the right place for you
We are a Helsinki-based game company best known for our hit game Merge Mansion and our people-first company culture.

We have mutually agreed on five cultural norms to describe how we build trust and work as Metacore – you can find them here.
Our company’s mission is to entertain hundreds of millions of people for decades. Although we already entertain 35,000,000+ players worldwide and have grown into a team of 100+ game industry professionals in less than two years, we’re only getting started. That’s where we hope you come in: to provide legal guidance for our mobile game development, publishing and marketing teams as well as support our stakeholders to navigate the constantly evolving regulations on privacy, consumer protection and data. Moreover, we will count on your skills and curiosity as a true legal generalist from time to time as we keep growing and expanding our company.
