Leaftail Labs is looking for a talented software engineer to help us on our quest to pioneer immersive gaming for everyone. We’re a small, fast moving company, so we look for software engineers that love to learn and try new things.

Work independently, going from a feature spec to a tested & deployed feature with minimal oversight.
Fix bugs in complex systems.
Build tools to help the team be as productive as possible.
Share on-call duties to make sure our services are running smoothly 24/7.
Be a positive influence in the workplace and help us build an office culture where everyone is excited to come to work.
Requirements:
Strong previous working knowledge of Unity’s game engine.
Helped ship products in a professional team environment.
Be highly competent with at least one programming language, ideally C#.
Authorized to work in the United States.

Be Ready for Change: Change is the only constant and we need a flexible team that can quickly and easily adapt. Be comfortable wearing many hats—there is no “that’s not my job” here.
Try Something New: Be willing to try new things, take a crack at a new skill and be comfortable with making mistakes—it’s the fastest way to learn.
Be Interesting: Developing our hobbies, passions, and interests makes us all around better people, and better teammates. We make this super easy by building these ideals right into our office perks!
Keep Playing: Free games. You pick ‘em, we buy ‘em.
Keep Reading: Free books. Any books you want: read something interesting and tell us about it!
