Hi devs. RedManta LLC is looking for exceptional developers to join us at our HQ in San Mateo, located a short walk from the Roblox HQ. We’re looking for any and all skillsets to add to our team.
Here at RedManta we want to provide opportunities for our employees to grow. We train people in new skills, refine their existing skills, and delegate responsibilities often. Being at our HQ will give you on-site experience at a real game development studio, where you’ll be provided with opportunities and challenges that enable you to grow far beyond what you’d be able to do at home.
As roblox developers, we understand how important community is. Getting feedback and sharing knowledge is essential to the development process, so when you’re accepted we’ll invite you to our developer network, contributor network, and influencer network. You’ll meet new people and get to work with some of the most accomplished individuals and groups on the platform.
The starting salary for an on-site employee is $5,000 per month. We pay for your moving expenses up to $1,000 and we’ll provide you with a desk, a computer, and $1,500 of equipment that you pick. We have lots of experience living in the area, so we can help you find a place too.
Also we have snacks.
We’re looking for full time, 40 hours per week employees. We expect you to be ambitious and actively involved in your work. We didn’t get to where we are by letting good be good enough, and we bring that attitude to everything we do.
You must be 18+ and a resident of the USA. When you’re accepted you’ll have to sign an employment agreement and send us your W-9 (the same form roblox requires to devex). That’s really it.
Think you have a skill that we could use? Send me a PM on the dev forums with your application. It can be in whatever format you want: written in the PM, link to a google doc, etc.
The best applications we see hit multiple key points. We believe there’s a lot of great talent out there, but if you don’t know how to communicate that talent with your application then it will go unnoticed. So when writing your application keep these things in mind:
- Tell us about your background. We want unique people that can bring new ideas to the table. We want to know how you got started, where you’re at now, and where you want to be in the future. Your goals are as important as ours.
- Tell us about your role on projects you’ve worked on. “I made Jailbreak” does not sound as good as “I led a team of 5 people to make Jailbreak”. Go into as much detail as possible.
- Show us your ambition. We want people who will actively look for ways to go above and beyond to make their projects succeed. We want success-oriented people, because the team as a whole can only succeed if everyone in the team is succeeding.
And as always, If you think you won’t get the job, apply anyway! Worst case scenario: you apply, get rejected, reapply later, and we can see with our own eyes how much you’ve improved in that time. That can go a long way, so plant that seed now.
