      How do I apply?

      Email your resume using the button below to sir.meowface@megacatstudios.com.

      Can I apply if there aren’t any openings for the discipline I’m most skilled at?

      Yes! We receive applications when we’re casting a wider net, but more often than not we are using our existing Applicant Pool, referrals, and local games professors throughout Pittsburgh for candidates.

      What can I do to make a stronger impact with my application?

      Commercial experience and genre expertise is more important to us than anything else. When you’re earlier in your career, showing is better than telling: hobbyist, academic projects, and links that we can explore tell the best story.

      Do I need a games resume or a certain degree to apply?

      Not necessarily! Several of our strongest cats have backgrounds in healthcare, finance, or even construction. What they all share is a unified passion for gaming, a work ethic that feels catty, and the goal of building a career in gaming.

      FUNDAMENTALS OF BEING CATTY

      Your integrity is fundamental to your character. You’re curious, decisive, and bring more hustle than talk to each project. You take initiative, perpetually seek new knowledge, and aim to emulate best practices from experts within and outside of the studio and incorporate them into your work. You treat your team with respect, and make an effort to elevate others as we raise the pixel tides. You have a passion for gaming that excites those around you, and pushes you to hone your skills further. You understand how your work affects your team as well as the experience you are building. You are player-centric, and want to build a legacy for yourself, and cats globally, that we can be proud of.

      You value communication, relationships and growth. You are people-oriented, love collaborating in a team environment, and can work outside of your comfort zone. You can think big, move fast, and you’re comfortable challenging the old ways.
