The team has built a next-generation engine tentatively titled the “Unchained Engine” which is powering their two games in development – Camelot Unchained, a niche RvR old-school MMORPG (currently in Beta) and Final Stand: Ragnarok, a PvE looter-slasher in which teams of any size fight against hordes of NPCs (currently in very Early Access on Steam).

Job Description

Unchained Entertainment is looking for an ASP.NET developer to help create Camelot Unchained. You’ll take part in the development of an API that securely provides important gameplay data and functionality in real-time to both the game UI and the public. As part of this position you will work closely with both gameplay and UI developers to help facilitate the flow of information through the API layer.

  • Support, guide, and feed our in-game HTML-based UI
  • Create features behind public webpages to engage and support our community
  • Provide hooks for systems like crafting and guilds to be accessible everywhere
  • Collaborate closely in a small, gamer-focused and developer-driven team

Qualifications

  • Fluency in .NET development using C#
  • Experience with recent ASP.NET WebAPI versions
  • Experience creating secure & robust but remixable REST APIs
  • A passion for gaming, especially MMORPGs
  • A relentless focus on the end-user experience
  • Comfortable with code versioning tools such as git
  • Minimum 3 years experience in web backend development using any technologies

Big Bonuses

  • Experience with GraphQL
  • Experience with SignalR or WebSockets
  • Experience with SSO systems
  • Experience with JavaScript / TypeScript and front-end web development
  • Willingness to engage the user and mod-maker communities
  • Familiarity with APIs from other games

Smaller Bonuses

  • Experience with MongoDB or other document-oriented data stores
  • Experience with persistent data structures & functional programming
  • Experience with AWS or Google Cloud hosting
  • Experience with analytics
  • Experience with native development in C++
  • Prior game development experience
  • Degree in computer science or related field

Additional Information

Note: Unchained Entertainment is hiring for a broad range of positions on a growing team. We have definite skill and task needs, but the eventual division of tasks within the team will depend on the eventual team members. If you’re an outstanding and talented individual whose qualifications fall halfway between two of our listings, we’d still like to hear from you. All candidates must have excellent written and verbal communication skills. We are an emphatically equal-opportunity employer.
