Giant Fox Studios is looking for a Senior Photon/Unity3D Developer to improve the stability of our online multiplayer game, Swing Striker.
The game is unreleased but already has online play that was tested with a few hundred users during a beta test earlier this year. Since then, we’ve been focused on single player mode, but still need to address some of the Photon issues that were brought up in the test. Our current team doesn’t have enough experience with Photon to understand and fix the issues, so we are really looking for a Senior person that is confident about fixing it. The main tasks for this person would be working the existing system to improve stability and revise how users connect with each other for online matches.

How to Apply
Email us with your resume, links to any of your work or your portfolio, and a bit about why you feel you’d be a good fit for this project. We look forward to hearing from you!
We love having a diverse team and seeing under-represented candidates apply. Please send us your resume even if you aren’t sure you’re exactly what we’re looking for. Worst case, we say it’s not a good fit right now and have your info ready to go for when a more fitting role opens up. Best case, you get to work with people that will love working with you too!
Giant Fox Studios is a creative digital agency founded in 2011 that focuses on games, but also works in web and app development. We started off making Flash games for clients like Bored.com, which then expanded into taking on clients for mobile games. We now have consistent client projects that help fund the development of our own indie games. The team is made up of one founder, Jaime, and a wide range of contractors. This includes industry veterans that have worked on AAA games like Hearthstone, Madden, and DragonVale. Because of this structure, our team is very flexible and usually hired per project. However, many contractors choose to continue working with us on new projects that come up as well.
We care very much about the people we work with and strive to exceed expectations. We hope to be a significant, but not dominating, part of your life. We want you to have friends, family, hobbies, and a life outside of work. We work as a team - we want you to love your colleagues and to also know that they support you 100%. We want you to be proud of what you do and how you do it.
Since 2011 we’ve been a fully remote team. We generally have team meetings in the morning (US timezone), but outside of that, you are able to work whenever you’d like to. As long as you keep the team updated regularly, we are quite flexible.
We love learning from each other and have knowledge shares where a team member picks a topic they are passionate about to share. It’s an optional thing, but we love learning together and helping each other grow.
