Sharkmob's crew has high ambitions, so we value smart decisions, creativity and passion for the craft. If you consider yourself to be a skilled programmer that thrives in close collaborations with others - then we might be the next challenge you're looking for.

The projects will face a lot of interesting challenges when it comes to world building, pipelines, streaming and performance - I can't wait to take them on!" - Johan Bernhardsson, Lead Programmer on our second project.

Added bonus:
- Experience working with Unreal Engine 4 and 5.
