We are a team with a long history of looking for long-term companions - we are hiring for the studio, not for the project.

This is an important part of our company philosophy. Talent is always welcome, no matter where you are from. We offer a family-friendly work-life balance and a lot of flexibility. Here you can work on IPs known worldwide and help shape them.

As a bonus, Black Forest Games is located in one of the most beautiful and wealthiest areas in South Germany, located close to Strasbourg, Karlsruhe, and Basel.

Getting here is easy because of the excellent traffic conditions, 3 airports about 30 minutes away, and the Autobahn & ICE station right around the corner.

All of this in a region where kids still play in nature and ride to school by bike.

Love everything about us but you don't want to live in Germany? No problem, lots of our developers are living across the border in Strasbourg, France and get here easily by train or car.

Strasbourg is one of the biggest cities in France with citizens.
