A bit about the company/role:
$100bn was spent on in-game items last year. $0 went to players. We believe that games should provide more than just entertainment value for the time and money invested. At Immutable, we are combining blockchain technology and gaming expertise to solve this problem. Specifically, blockchain allows players to truly own their in-game items and to sell items for real money. Our goal is to create a technology platform where developers can easily integrate blockchain into their game.
We are looking for a Frontend Engineer to join our growing team. This is a fantastic opportunity to contribute to Immutable's mission of making digital worlds real by working on our very own blockchain game: Gods Unchained.
You will be a curious skilled software engineer who demonstrates initiative to dig deep and find creative ways to use value-oriented tech. You enjoy working with teams and have strong communication skills to communicate effectively and can comfortably deal with ambiguity.

- Work closely with your team with a high degree of synchronisation about goals and strategy to allow for efficient processes
- Lead and deliver multiple projects within the Gods Unchained team
- Deliver a world-class game experience to our players
You’ll have:
- Minimum of 4+ years of deep engineering experience as a Front-end or Full-stack engineer or developer
- 4+ years of experience developing web applications
- 3+ years experience with React / Angular, CSS / SASS, Webpack, RxJS
- Experience working across a range of technologies and an ability to adapt to the shifting demands of the role
