We are currently pushing out patches at a regular interval (once a week roughly), so it is important to keep your work ready for customer feedback from an early stage.

Campfire Games consists of 13 people spread out across the world. We have an office in Denmark but the majority of all team members are remote workers, working from home. This allows us to be very flexible in terms of our work hours (there are no set times you have to work). The external work relation naturally comes with a great deal of trust between the work parties and we expect you to be very self-driven which is particularly needed when working remotely.

We’re able to offer anywhere from a part-time to a full-time position.

Contact & Application Process:

Please send your application to applications@warofrights.com and we will get back to you. If selected as a candidate for the position you may be invited to a technical interview as well as presented with a trial task.

We look forward to be hearing from you!
