Game Programmer (Unity / C#)

We are looking for an experienced, resourceful, and curious Game Programmer to join our team to help shape the future of casual free-to-play mobile games.

In this role, you will collaborate with designers, artists, programmers, analysts, and other game developers to bring gameplay visions to life. Working mostly in Unity, you will be responsible for ensuring that the codebase remains scalable, maintainable, and only improves over time. Your contribution will have a lasting impact, making our games and codebases enjoyable to work on for years to come.

In our ambitious, driven, and caring team, we believe in empowering individuals to lead their own work and take ownership on projects, tech decisions, and their professional growth. You’ll get to take initiative, push the boundaries of what is possible, and grow as a developer.

Futureplay’s studio is based in Helsinki, but we are working globally - and flexibly. We are a part of an international network with Plarium, adding up to our pool of talented people around the world. We focus on creating beautifully designed, easy-to-pick-up-and-play mobile games, and our portfolio includes successful games like Merge Gardens, Idle Farming Empire & Battlelands Royale.
