You Are Not Your Job Title

Working with us means you won’t need to focus on chasing titles or climbing ladders. We’ve decided that our internal job titles don’t include prefixes like senior, junior, principal, or director.

When it comes to public-facing spaces like LinkedIn, we trust and encourage everyone to select a title that feels most appropriate for them. Read More

About The Company

We believe games have the power to bring people around the world together and closer to each other. We work to create new, innovative, memorable experiences no one has played before. This is why we try to design games that excite wide and diverse player communities as well as to expand the audience for otherwise smaller “niche” game concepts. If you love to think, talk, play and make games, Supercell is the place for you. We’ve built a company of proactive and independent teams with the freedom to do what they think is best for their players, our games and the company at large.
