As a gameplay programmer at Embark, you will work on The Finals alongside some of the most talented people in the games industry.

In close collaboration with our designers, you will develop new and exciting gameplay features tied to dynamic elements such as destruction, fire, and water, while also creating tools that enable designers to craft the most dynamic levels seen in a first person shooter.

The games we're making are built in Unreal, using C++, blueprints and a scripting language called Angelscript.

  • Fluent in English - our team comes from all over the world!
  • An interest in computer science and programming as a craft

  • Experience with multiplayer
  • Experience with game physics, such as destruction & dynamism
  • Previously worked with shooter games
  • Ability to speak "design"

At Embark we offer competitive salaries, passionate colleagues to share knowledge with and much more, but most of all we invite you to take part of a journey into the unknown, to build creative, surprising and beautiful experiences together.

Did we leave anyone out? Well, we welcome you, too! We think that the gaming industry is made better when everyone has a seat at the table.

Be yourself at Embark and make games while doing so. Please apply with confidence. We can’t wait to hear from you (in English)!
