ABOUT OUR GAME
Tectonicus: on the edge of war, synthesizes mechanics of turn-based strategies. To succeed, you are to use strategic thinking when placing heroes, commanders and units on the board, as well as building synergic decks that emphasize each faction’s unique strengths.
Apart from online and local PvP battles, Tectonicus will be featuring a full-scale story mode. The player will be called to restore the historical truth lost in contradicting accounts and theories, rewritten history and scholars’ disputes, by reincarnating significant battles and living through them as warlords, across centuries.
ABOUT YOUR DEPARTMENT
As a Historian, you will become part of the History Department, where you will do in-depth research on all historical aspects, features, illustrations, etc. in the game. We offer an opportunity to translate your core expertise into communication in a concrete game product. In addition, you get a lot of development opportunities, and get the opportunity to try out several different parts of the game development process, as well as business development, marketing, and other exciting tasks.
In addition to the work in the history department, you will also have the opportunity to get to know and perhaps collaborate with:
* Game design
* Marketing and SoMe content
* Illustrations
* Graphic design
* Business development
* Programming (in Unity)
SKILLS & REQUIREMENTS
* You have either recently graduated or are currently studying a bachelor, master or similar related to history or archeology
* You can communicate effectively in English as that is our company language and we often coordinate with team-members working remotely.
* We don’t expect you to have experience from the video game industry, but a basic knowledge of videogames as a product is a plus.
DETAILS
The position can either be onsite, hybrid, or remote, full-time with some flexibility. As we are currently seeking funding, the position will be unpaid but can contribute to an internship. Our offices are located in three locations: Copenhagen at Amager/Nørrebro and Frederiksberg.
WHAT WE OFFER YOU (AND PERKS)
* Comfortable Workspace: Equipped office space with board games, docking stations (computer not provided), and a tea kitchen with free coffee/tea.
* Dynamic Learning Environment: Immersive, creative workspace within an entrepreneurial ecosystem alongside other startups. Handcrafted onboarding day and process for a seamless team integration.
* Flexible Work Arrangements:
* Liberal holiday, sick leave, and childcare days.
* Menstrual and menopause leave.
* Remote work options for a healthy work-life balance.
* Breaks for recreational activities, including game sessions.
* Career Support and Development: Time off for training and career growth. Involvement in organizational improvements, processes, culture, policies, the work environment and beyond.
