// JOB DESCRIPTION

**Responsibilities**

Looking for a programmer to join a small team working on a tower-defense / strategy game inspired by games like Kingdom Two Crowns. We also love historical, survival, strategy and city building games in general.

**Qualifications**

We’re looking for programmer who:

Is comfortable with Unreal Engine 5

Has experience or strong interest in NPC / AI behavior

Has worked with or is curious about optimizing lots of on-screen characters (e.g. instanced skeletal meshes, Niagara characters, crowd systems, or similar techniques)

The team is currently group of two from Finland: (Senior 3D Artist, 10+ years in the game industry) and one beginner programmer. We’ve have built some environments, characters, tested gameplay ideas, and started core programming. Take a look at the screenshots and video below (Art and the undead enemy types might change and there are some placeholder assets as well.)

The project is hobby-based and unpaid for now, with the goal of seeking funding and going full-time if it gains traction. Team size will stay small (3–5 people).

**How to Apply**

If you enjoy strategy games, systemic gameplay, and building something cool with a small team, we’d love to hear from you.
