About the role
About Piktiv
Piktiv is an engineering powerhouse. Studios and publishers bring us in when they need experts to handle complex technical problems. Our core work is porting games across platforms as well as co-development - building features, systems, and complete projects from the ground up in close collaboration with our clients. In addition to that, we also take on UI/UX implementation, performance optimization, and networking solutions. We work with both international and local clients, from small indie developers to full-scale AAA companies. Some of our clients include Iron Gate, Ghost Ship Games, Raw Fury and Coffee Stain.
Who you are
You are a programmer first and a game developer second. You love the craft of writing code and are always looking to sharpen your skills and find the best solution for the problem in front of you. You are driven to try out and learn new technologies, and you are happy to step outside your comfort zone to grow your knowledge. You understand the value of stable solutions that hold up over the long term, and you take ownership of the code you write.
The role
As a programmer at Piktiv, you will be joining a team of experienced colleagues who help each other become better developers (both individually and as a team) as part of delivering outstanding solutions for our clients. Whether it is a tricky platform port or a co-dev project where you are delivering features and content, you will own the quality of what you ship and be working close to the client.

- Porting video games between platforms.
- Optimizing for performance to gain extra frames per second.
- Ensuring game control schemes function across different controllers.
- Building features, systems, and complete projects from the ground up.
