About KOMODO

KOMODO is a 100% privately-owned company that has published over 120 games globally. We are now building our first fully in-house title, a competitive PVP action game focused on modernizing the shoot ‘em up genre. Alongside this, we continue to expand Steam Deck sales across Asia, including the introduction of new Steam and other gaming hardware.

Supported by experienced mentors from across the industry, we are building a small and powerful team where every individual has the freedom and creative agency to make a meaningful impact.

As an early member of the game engineering team, you will have a direct impact on how the game plays and feels as it moves into full production.

A successful candidate will combine a deep passion for gaming with strong technical skills in coding and rapid prototyping.
