Company Overview

Bithell Games was founded in 2013 after the success of Thomas Was Alone, and has since continued that success with a string of games, from original IP, to collaborations on licensed IP. We’re known internationally for our often surprising, but always entertaining projects.

Our team is made up of a mix of full time and contract employees, all working remotely since the company’s founding. This lets us work fast, creatively and with more flexibility. We take enormous pride in the quality of the games we produce, but put equal weight on our company’s treatment of workers. We have never crunched, and we never will.

We have a number of exciting projects on the boil right now, and are hiring for a range of roles. We’re excited to continue to expand our team and make more awesome games.

Currently, we’re looking for a Senior Programmer. You’ll work alongside other programmers on an exciting new project. You’ll use your experience to help us improve our code standards, and be responsible for core gameplay and general programming. You’ll work directly with the design team to create engaging mechanics and rewarding game feel. You’ll be an essential and respected part of our team.

Responsibilities:
  • You’ll be responsible for delivering multiple core gameplay features, core interactions, camera, traversal and combat mechanics.
  • You’ll be part of defining code standards and best practices for your project, and then maintaining those throughout. You’ll take part in code reviews and work with others to plan QA process.
  • We’re a small company, so we value collaboration with team members across all disciplines, and you’ll be expected to communicate and work well with the whole team.
  • You’ll be expected to iterate quickly, but also be able to clean up and produce high quality code.
  • You’ll be a proactive and positive contributor to the project, and support your team.

Requirements:
  • Advanced experience with Unity and C#.
  • Multiple shipped games as a programmer.
  • Experience with action/3D platform game development, particularly core gameplay code.
  • Excellent communication skills, in terms of presentation to other departments, and detailed communication with other coders.
  • An interest in game design, particularly game feel.

Nice to have:
  • Console development experience.
  • Experience with tools development for Unity.
  • Experience of development of ‘large world’ games in Unity.

If you don't fit every single requirement, we encourage you to apply anyway!


If you’d like to apply for this job, please send an email with subject line ‘Senior Programmer’ followed by your name. Please include a CV, links to any work or portfolio as appropriate, and any other relevant information. We’re excited to hear from you!
