Tech Tree Games is hiring an experienced game developer!

We’re a small mobile studio based out of the US with a few successful live games and more in development, and we’re looking to bring on more people to grow our company and our biggest game, The Tower.

This is a contract position, with the contractor entirely in charge of their own hours and schedule, and is intended to be near or at full-time (30+ hours per week). The primary responsibility is individual contributor work on features and content for the game, however the ideal candidate would be experienced enough to work with the existing developers on the project and help ensure that the game’s codebase remains usable, clean, and well-documented, avoiding technical debt and other potential issues. The exact level of responsibility depends on the person and their experience.

Tech Tree is an entirely remote studio. For US residents located in California or Texas this is intended as a contract-to-hire position moving into full-time and salaried down the road if desired, but all applicants can be considered for the role on an ongoing contracted basis.

What You’ll Do

• Create and maintain features for The Tower, a mobile strategy game with idle elements
• Contribute code for new content, features, and events
• Optimize and fix bugs in existing gameplay systems
• Work with other developers  to create compelling gameplay that puts the player first
• Review code, documentation, and other work from developers on the game
• Help create the roadmap and plan for milestones and releases

What We Need

• 3-5+ years of professional experience on a live-operated mobile game
• Expertise with Unity and C#
• Mobile-specific proficiency, including ad network SDKs, analytics, and similar features
• Experience working in a remote environment with minimal overhead and supervision

What We’d Love

• Experience working on tower defense, strategy, and/or idle games
• Personal experience playing The Tower or similar titles
• Well-rounded developer comfortable with wearing multiple hats on a small game team

What You’ll Get

• Hourly rate depending on experience, level, and individual (base range of $35-$70/hr)
• Flexible hours on your own schedule
• Minimal to no meetings, no corporate overhead, just game development

Please note that prior experience is necessary. If you are interested, please send us an email with your resume/CV, portfolio, desired rate, and any other considerations. Thank you!
