WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR // WHAT YOU'LL DO

You will lead a team building games internally on top of our truly interesting and powerful tech, and in the process help guide the future development of our platform. In addition to building kick-ass mobile games, you will play a pivotal role in creating a platform which will revolutionize the future of game development.

We don't have an exhaustive list of criteria for this role -- we're still at the size where we can still fit the role around the individual and their interests (rather than the other way around). Simply put, we're looking for hands-on engineering leaders, with experience successfully guiding and coaching teams building great games.

If this sounds like an interesting challenge, this role will be perfect for you.

In addition to a great work environment and solid compensation and benefits, Game Closure offers:

- Ownership: We're a small team, and we empower our people to pursue novel approaches.
- Challenge(s): What we're doing isn't easy. We're working every day to solve the hardest problems in mobile game development.
- Skills: There's zero stagnation here. We use the latest tools and technologies every day. You can touch all parts of the stack and see your influence on real, shipping products
- Creative input: Ideas are valued from all corners of Game Closure, and we work fast -- that idea can go from concept to live in short order.
- Community. Closures hang together. We take care of our people and believe it makes us stronger as a company. We enjoy working together and relaxing together.
