Job description

Описание:

Octo Games is an international game development studio with a legal entity in the Netherlands. Since 2017, we've released more than 200 commercial games on Steam, building a loyal player community and gaining years of hands-on experience in game development. We develop and publish our own games end-to-end — from the initial idea and narrative through production, release, live operations, and long-term support. Because we own our products, decisions are made quickly, good ideas are heard, and everyone has a real opportunity to influence the result.

Задачи:

• Own technical implementation from concept through release.


• Design scalable gameplay architecture and core systems — after you've seen the pattern repeat, not before.


• Develop gameplay mechanics using Unity and C#.


• Ship production-ready playable builds yourself, hands-on keyboard.


• Build reusable frameworks, tooling, and workflows once a recurring need is confirmed, not speculatively.


• Set engineering standards and keep the codebase clean and scalable as the team grows.


• Integrate UI, animation, Addressables, plugins, 2D/3D assets, and video.


• Work closely with designers and artists to turn ideas into experiences players actually enjoy.


• Profile, optimize, and debug production builds.

Требования:

• 5+ years of commercial Unity development.


• Strong C#, with real command of OOP, SOLID, and design patterns — not just familiarity with the terms.


• Experience designing scalable architecture from scratch, ideally more than once.


• Deep understanding of gameplay systems, not just the tools around them.


• ScriptableObjects and data-driven architecture.


• Unity Animator, Unity UI/Canvas.


• Addressables and asset management.


• Dependency Injection (Zenject, VContainer, or similar).


• Comfortable writing custom Unity Editor tooling.


• Solid with Git, profiling, and optimization.


• Shipped commercial games.


• Builder before architect, always.


• A hands‑on engineer who genuinely wants to keep writing production code.


• Comfortable moving without a perfect spec or a finished process.


• Knows when NOT to build the general solution — and can tell you about a time they deliberately didn't.


• Thinks in ownership, not tickets.


• Enjoys helping others grow as the team eventually scales around them.


• Будет плюсом: Multiplayer experience;


• Будет плюсом: A game you personally shipped on Steam;


• Будет плюсом: Telemetry and data-driven decision making;


• Будет плюсом: Build and release automation;


• Будет плюсом: UniTask;


• Будет плюсом: DOTween;


• Будет плюсом: NavMesh / AI;


• Будет плюсом: Shader Graph / HLSL;


• Будет плюсом: Experience with AI-assisted development workflows;


• Будет плюсом: Startup or founding engineer experience

Условия:

• Fully remote work.


• Base salary scaled to experience and location.


• 20 paid days off—15 vacation, 5 sick


• Direct access to founders — no layers in between.


• Real ownership and real influence over what gets built.


• Minimal bureaucracy, fast decisions.


• The chance to build both the products and the engineering culture around them.
