What about having creative and technical ownership from ideation through to release? Read on!\nTriband is the award-winning studio behind the WHAT THE? comedy game series, played by millions worldwide. From our home in central Copenhagen, more than 60 wonderful humans are united by a simple mission: to make everyone laugh.\nWHAT THE CAR? is our absurdly silly racing adventure game which addresses fundamental questions such as… What if a car had legs? Or a jetpack? Or secretly identified as a sailboat? First launched in 2023 on Apple Arcade and now also on Steam, it has gained a steady following of dedicated fans who have contributed hundreds of thousands of community-built levels.\nWe’re looking for a Senior Gameplay Programmer to help us continue to build upon CAR’s success by expanding upon its absurdly silly universe! We believe the best people to come up with ideas are the ones implementing them, so we expect a high degree of creativity and game design knowledge from our Gameplay Programmers, in addition to their crazy tech skills. This role involves around 60% programming and 40% game design.\nHere’s what that looks like day to day\nBuild and ship gameplay code. You’ll implement features end-to-end in an existing Unity/C# codebase and ship regularly in a live environment.\n\nGenerate design ideas. You’ll take part in shaping features, articulate intent, evaluate tradeoffs, and iterate through discussion with the team.\n\nKeep the game healthy. Fix bugs, improve systems, review test videos, and document findings so issues don’t come back to haunt us.\n\nExtend and refine what’s there. You’ll build on existing mechanics, making them more robust and enjoyable for players.\n\nSupport and collaborate. You’re part of a small, closely knit, cross discipline team where people help each other reach their goals.\n\nPrototype and let go. Not everything ships, and that’s fine. Comfort with iteration and refactoring is part of the job.\n\nYou’re a great match if\nYou have 8+ years of commercial game development experience, having shipped at least two games as part of a team\n\nYou have strong Unity and C# skills. You’re comfortable navigating a shared codebase and writing maintainable code you’d be proud to hand off\n\nYou care about stability, performance, and long-term maintainability, and you leave systems better than you found them\n\nYou genuinely value collaboration and working very closely with every member of the team\n\nYou approach other people’s ideas with openness and try to understand the intention before giving feedback or pushing back\n\nNice to have\nExperience working on live games\n\nRequirements for any job at Triband\nYou thrive in taking ownership - you spot problems, design and implement creative solutions that push projects forward\n\nYou’re motivated by collaboration, mutual respect, inclusiveness, and creativity, and you actively contribute to sustaining that culture\n\nYou value a positive work environment\n\nYou contribute to making the studio a fun and supportive place\n\nPracticalities\nPrimarily work on-site at our cozy office in central Copenhagen\n\nOnly open to candidates who are already eligible to work in Denmark as we don’t offer relocation support or visa sponsorship for this role\n\n37-hour work week, with flexible work hours\n\nNo crunch, we put people before deadlines\n\nOur working language is English\n\nWe offer\nSilly but ambitious projects\n\nThe chance to contribute to great games that reach millions of players\n\nA playful and ambitious work environment where experimentation is encouraged\n\nFriendly and kind colleagues who love making each other laugh as much as making games\n\nA professional development budget to invest in your growth\n\nSocial activities like Friday bars, hobby nights, board game nights and team events\n\nDaily lunch at a local restaurant just a walk across the lakes away, with plant-based options (and soft ice on Thursdays).\n\nSix weeks of paid vacation\n\nPaid parental leave at full salary for the periods covered by state reimbursement\n\nChild's first sick day on us, no questions asked\n\nPension plan and private health insurance\n\nEndless amounts of coffee\n\nWHAT THE TRIBAND?\nTriband is the award-winning studio behind the WHAT THE? comedy game series, which is played by millions worldwide.
