Vaki Games is seeking a talented Software Engineer with a passion for game development who can work self-directed and within a team. Engineers are expected to design, implement, and modify game features while collaborating with other engineers, artists, and designers.

What All These Positions Have in Common:

• We develop across multiple platforms for a range of devices, which can include PC, VR and Console
• You’ll be working alongside stakeholders, artists, other developers, testers and sometimes clients on different layers of the infrastructure.
• Therefore, a commitment to collaborative problem-solving, sophisticated design, and the creation of quality products is essential. In other words, we’re looking for smart, scrappy people who work and play well with others.

Vaki Games is an established game studio located in Finland, Joensuu. Like a lot of indie studios, we divide our time between developing our own games and doing work-for-hire projects with some incredibly cool clients. At the moment, we’re looking to expand our engineering department with graphics engineers. Maybe that’s you!
