Ask HN: Who is hiring? (September 2021)

Singularity 6 | Software Engineer, Sysadmin, Game Engineer, UI/UX Engineer, Engineering Manger | Remote or Los Angeles (Westside) | https://www.singularity6.com

Singularity 6 is the game studio behind Palia (palia.com): a cozy, community sim MMO. It's the beginning of many new community-first online worlds. We're still a relatively young, pre-launch startup founded by AAA game industry veterans. VCs include a16z and we've closed a series B round.

Our engineering team is growing rapidly and we're still looking for more help to take Palia to launch. Open position include:

- Engineering Managers

- Game Engineers

- Backend Software Engineers

- UI/UX Engineers, particularly those with mobile experience

- SRE & Sysadmins

We're looking for a range of experience levels. Tech stack includes Unreal Engine, Rust, Nomad and more. We're big on open source and looking to contribute back to the community. If you've always wanted to get into the game industry, this is a good opportunity. If you're part of the industry, this is a studio that pays competitively and is committed to investing in people.

I'm the tech director and you can find me at https://www.linkedin.com/in/jaaronfarr/

Apply at https://www.singularity6.com/careers

Note: the Engineering Manager and Game Engineering roles require (eventual) relocation to Los Angeles. Other roles can be remote, though we prefer local candidates. Here in LA, we're still working from home, office to reopen late 2021 or early 2022.
