Hi there, we look forward to working with you.

Wait, who are you?

Conduit Labs is a stealth mode group of creative hackers in the heart of Cambridge, MA. Conduit was founded by a combination of web entrepreneurs and social gaming pioneers; leaders in the development of Rock Band, Lord of the Rings Online, Guitar Hero, Asheron’s Call and Ambient Devices. We’ve got funding, ambition, and plenty of coffee in our quest to build a new kind of flash-based social gaming.

Competitive salary, full benefits

Although Conduit is a small, early startup, with less than 20 folks, we are funded and offer competitive salaries, and full benefits. We also offer a well stocked kitchen of regular and organic foods, free Friday group meals, and if you use public transportation we’ll pay for it. It may be a bit of a gauntlet to get in here, but we take care of our own.

Work with people who don’t suck

It may sound simple, but we only work with people we actually want to work with. We’re looking for that right mix of qualifications, smarts, and attitude. You’ll be joining a mish-mash of folks with varied backgrounds making interesting products, from Pixar to Turbine, Harmonix to Sugarloot.com, and Ambient Devices to MTV. We believe a variety of perspectives help build a better product, and we’re looking forward to getting to know yours.

We are seeking sharp, visionary people in all circles, so even if you don’t see a position that fits you, tell us your story. If you enjoy an ambitious, independent, innovative environment focused on a new generation of online social gaming, we’d love to hear from you. Currently we are actively seeking:

Game Developer You’re a driven leader in casual games, with a keen eye for what a polished consumer web and gaming experience should require, and a desire to experiment with new forms of game design. We’re looking for outside-of-the-box engineers to work with the creative team on implementing new forms of multiplayer web-based gameplay. This is a role partly as a creative team lead, partly as engineer, all start-up drive. If you are a born leader but still like to get your hands dirty, you’re reading the right job spec. You’ll be leading the gameplay engineers and being versatile enough to jump headfirst into new languages, from Actionscript 3, to Java, to Python, while huddling with the rest of our tight team on iterative deadlines to build wonderful things.

A love of startups, music, games, and wonderfully constructed interactive experiences are a big plus. Experience with C-style languages, AS3, and experience with shipping entertainment products (interactive websites, games, etc) will be key.
