Blackbird Interactive is a creative-fueled, future-driven, independent game studio where the best talent in the industry can find long-term careers to help grow their abilities while working on a wide range of projects. These include both world-class IPs and our own creations across multiple genres and platforms.

In 2022, we introduced a four-day work week and continue to support in-studio, remote (within Canada), and hybrid work arrangements as permanent options for all employees.

We’re looking for a senior gameplay engineer to join an unannounced sci-fi action game. This role will drive the design and implementation of moment-to-moment systems that define the player experience. You’ll partner closely with design, art, and production to shape gameplay architecture, create tools and systems for fast iteration, solve cross-disciplinary challenges, and help craft an innovative and exciting title.

This role is remote-friendly in Canada (Pacific-time overlap required).
