About
We're hiring!
We're a team of scrappy engineers willing to get our hands dirty with everything from Linux internals, niche game engines, designs that don't look like this, and god-tier developer experiences. If you prefer reading the source instead of documentation, love hacking on games in your free time, and have a healthy dose of anarchy in you, come join us!
