Our engineering team is rapidly expanding and we are looking for talented developers that are passionate about gaming and building quality software. You will help us grow our current games and also build new games on the Roblox platform.
Our Stack
We use some Roblox specific tools and frameworks that will likely be unfamiliar. Because of this, it is essential that you be willing to learn and ask questions. Our primary programming language is TypeScript, a modern typed language similar to C#. Our TypeScript code is transpiled into Lua, but you are not expected to be familiar with Lua.

Our development team works in weekly or bi-weekly release cycles. An ideal team member can be assigned one or more new features at the beginning of the cycle and have the features completed and ready for release by the end of the cycle.
