This position is full time onsite in the office in Malmö, and will start with a trial period.

Currently employing around 70 people, Tarsier Studios is a game development studio based in the vibrant city of Malmö, Sweden. We are the developers of Statik and the award winning Little Nightmares franchise. At Tarsier, it’s the games that drive us. Quality above all else. Interesting ideas executed to perfection. We want people to be proud of the work they do here, and to finish each project feeling as though they’ve pushed their abilities to the next level. That, of course, requires hard work and talent in equal measure, and we look for both of those things when recruiting new team members.

We welcome applicants of all backgrounds and genders, and look forward to hearing from you!
