Position Overview

We are looking for a Talent Acquisition Specialist with hands-on experience in the games industry to support our growing team.

This is not a traditional HR role. We are looking for someone who understands how gamedev works, knows where to find the right people, and can actively build a strong candidate pipeline.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys actively searching for talent, not just managing incoming applications.

You will work closely with our founders and art leads to identify, approach, and evaluate candidates across art and technical roles. The role is freelance / part-time, with flexibility depending on hiring needs.

• Review applications, portfolios, and profiles with an understanding of gamedev roles

• Maintain clear and structured candidate communication

Screening & Interviews

• Conduct initial screening calls in English

• Evaluate candidates not only on skills, but also on mindset and communication

• Assess cultural fit and readiness to work in a client-facing, remote environment

Collaboration

• Work closely with founders and team leads to understand hiring needs

• Align on candidate profiles, expectations, and hiring priorities

• Continuously refine recruitment approach based on feedback

Requirements

Experience

• Proven experience in recruitment within the games industry

• Strong understanding of gamedev roles (especially art and technical positions)

• Experience with proactive sourcing / headhunting

Tools & Process

• Experience working with ATS systems (Teamtailor is a strong plus)

• Ability to manage multiple candidates and roles in parallel

Communication

• Excellent spoken and written English

• Strong interpersonal skills and ability to build trust with candidates

Mindset

• Proactive, independent, and well-organized

• Good intuition when it comes to people and team fit

• Comfortable working in a remote, fast-moving environment

Nice to Have

• Experience recruiting for outsourcing / co-development studios

• Familiarity with art portfolios and basic quality assessment

• Existing network within gamedev

What We Offer

• Direct impact on building a high-quality team

• Work with experienced founders and international clients

• Fully remote setup

• Opportunity to shape recruitment processes and hiring strategy
