About Us

At Project 99, we're in the serious business of engineering fun - with a mission to maximise the potential of great games, back them with AAA budgets, and gear developers for long-term success.

We are embarking on an exciting new online game development project and looking for a great programmer to join us on our journey. We operate in an AGILE environment where everyone is responsible for carrying their own weight, while contributing to the product as a valued team-mate. Good knowledge of both front and backend will be a huge bonus, though there’s always room for learning.
