Senior Gameplay Engineer

Do you enjoy learning new features and can easily transition from one codebase to another? Do people often see you as the person who can hop in on anything and deliver great shipping code? We’re looking for folks like you.

At Squanch Games, we make stuff that people love: games that we want to play ourselves. We make experiences that we would like to be totally immersed in and enjoy for hours at a time, as well as shorter, crazier experiences that would be great to play with a group of friends, or possibly with your grandmother who only comes over because she is afraid you'll starve to death if left to your own devices.
