We’re a profitable video game start-up in London with 15 million monthly players and we’re hiring New Grad Software Engineers (2026 or 2027) to join our 11-person founding team.
About us
Creating games with editable worlds usually takes 20k+ lines of well-optimised code and large amounts of effort. Bloxd gives you editable worlds in 5 lines of code, within 5 minutes. You can play our games at bloxd.io.
About you
You’re passionate about gaming and excited by the prospect of building great games that bring millions together. You have strong engineering fundamentals and a strong product sense, are eager to wear many hats across game design, UI/UX, and community management, and can iterate quickly on a live product whilst learning from player feedback.
You’re equally energised by difficult engineering problems as you are by voxel, sandbox, and multiplayer games. You think deeply about what makes these games fun and enjoy building the technical systems that make them possible.
What we’re looking for
A degree in computer science, engineering, mathematics, or a related subject, or equivalent practical experience.
Some professional experience in software engineering, either through internships, or scaled side projects.
Experience developing games, game engines or modding through side projects.
Things you could work on within your first 2 months:
Create and manage your own game
Develop new gameplay systems inside existing games
Build new engine features for use by other game developers
Profile and optimise performance
Develop an in-game item marketplace
Improve our partner implementations (E.g. CrazyGames, Discord Activities)
Play a lot of Bloxd :)
Our tech
We have a TypeScript-first codebase, and use a combination of React, WebGL, and Node. This tech allows us to deliver Bloxd in an incredibly accessible way, and provides a great developer experience. You’ll need to be happy to pick these up if you’re not already familiar with them.

What We Do
Bloxd makes it easy to create and play multiplayer games with editable worlds, like minecraft's worlds.

We have more than 6 million monthly players on our games, a small team, and are growing fast. We're self-funded and profitable, and are looking for people to both develop Bloxd and build great games with it. Check out our games: bloxd.io.
