Senior Client Engineer: Carbonated
We are Carbonated and making mobile video games is our jam. We’re based in a small but awesome town in West LA that’s only a 15 minute walk to the beach if you’re so inclined. Our founders are veterans who’ve honed their craft over decades of industry experience including senior leadership roles at EA, Sony, Zynga & Blizzard. Currently we’re hard at work on Racing Rivals -- a high-risk/high-reward game for mid- to hardcore gamers. Check it out and you’ll get a feel for the type of games we like to make.
We’re looking for other driven and talented folks who love building games as much as we do.
