Role

Who you are

Having product sense, eyes for the details is great
React Native (TypeScript)
Experience with 3D or Game Engine is great
0-1, early stage eng experience is great
Passion and experience building consumer-facing products. We’d love to hear about apps you’ve made!

What the job involves

A-Players Only: We’re building a team of top-tier talent. A-players hire A-players. We’d rather invest in one exceptional person with an above-market salary they’re thrilled about than settle for multiple B-players at standard rates
Drive: You’re relentless and motivated to do whatever it takes to succeed. You might have something to prove, a fire in your belly, or a mind that works differently. Work isn’t just a job, it’s a core part of who you are and how you find purpose
Mission-Driven: Building digital life through AI friends excites you. You’re here to make an impact
EV-Based Decisions: We optimize for expected value, not comfort zones. No playing it safe with “good enough” choices
Flat Structure: Flat company org. Titles reflect scope. No political promotion games
If you’re an A-player ready to run hard and win big, this is your shot. Let’s build something extraordinary together

SLAY is a social gaming company focused on creating engaging experiences that connect people and amplify their creativity and emotions.
