Fuse Games. A love of games and a love of making games.
We understand deeply how games are made from the simple starting points of a one-line idea, through concept, prototyping, pre-production and large scale, multi hundred-person development teams.
This understanding is underpinned by the huge value of building high performing teams. We work hard to lead, grow, develop and fuse our people together, with a clear vision and aligned constraints that are guided by our shared values. Bringing energetic, creative collaboration with a sense of urgency is essential to everything that we do.
At Fuse it’s important for us all to create a space for everyone to feel safe and included in order to be responsibly open, generous and to be their best selves. We encourage curiosity to embrace diverse perspectives, being humble and leading by example.
An Exciting Opportunity:
We are looking for creative, collaborative and passionate people with a growth mindset to help us build amazing games. For us, software is key, and we need talented folks who are happiest in engine exploring, ideating, sharing and with a sense of urgency. The games industry is an ever-evolving fast moving one, so we’d love to have people on board who aren’t afraid to adapt, grow their skills and push both themselves and how we make games at Fuse.

What’s in it for you? Glad you asked!
We realise it takes world-class people to make world-class games, so we offer competitive compensation packages and a culture that thrives off of creativity and individuality.
We know we’re making games differently now and understand that family is important so offer flexible working hours and a hybrid culture that allows everyone to find the right work/life balance.
In addition, we want people to grow and expand their horizons so we promote a culture of learning and offer opportunities for people to learn new skills.
