What we are looking for:

If you're a passionate problem solver who gets a kick out of creating rewarding learning experiences for an audience as diverse as ours (read kids - can't read, can't click on a small button and won't sit straight during a user testing session and their ever possessive parents and ambitious teachers!), we might just have a career-changing opportunity waiting for you.

What you’ll do: Core Responsibilities

• Create games based on the Game and Level Design Documents

• Work with Game Designers to algorithmically generate levels

• Own all technical aspects of the game, including challenges in implementing the core game mechanics, art, animation

• Optimize code for best possible performance, quality, and responsiveness of games across platforms

• Write modular code, create reusable components

• Create quick prototypes for game ideas and concepts

• Very good with algorithms and problem solving

• Hands on with at least one programming language

• At least a bachelor’s degree (engineering/game development) or equivalent (BCA/MCA etc)

  
  Qualifications and Skills

• 4+ Years of experience building games for the mobile or web

• Understanding of common Design Patterns and techniques in game development

• Any experience working with game engines, e.g. Unity, Cocos2d-js, JavaScript etc.
  
  Culture at SplashLearn

  At SplashLearn, we dig individuality. We love people who have something to say, and we listen. With us, you will get a chance to weave a little bit of you in our suite of learning products that are being used by millions of users. We have a workplace that is perennially high on energy. You can find people deeply engrossed in conversations that range from the latest movie to the newest tech on the block, and you will also see people who don’t want to have anything to do with that and are quietly typing away on their machines.
