About DECA Games and A Thinking Ape Entertainment (ATA)

At DECA and ATA, we believe great games should last for decades, with player experience at the heart of everything we do. From the beginning, our mission has been to build vibrant, long-lasting online communities—and we know that starts with creating the right environment for ambitious, creative people to thrive.

We’ve built teams where talented individuals can do their best work, supported by a culture of trust, collaboration, and passion for games that bring joy to millions of players worldwide.

Today, DECA and ATA are fully remote companies with more than 365 people across 30+ countries. Together, we are proud members of the Embracer Group, Europe’s largest publicly traded gaming company.

About our culture

We’ve managed to maintain a small company feel with the stability and resources of a much larger one. We fully believe in the flexibility of a remote workplace. Team members are trusted to manage their time and get things done independently. We think that egos and politics need to be checked at the virtual door. That means no jerks are allowed, that no job is too small for anyone, and an openness to help and learn from each other is required. We love the challenge of working within constraints and love when we succeed as a team. Check out more about us and our values on our website (www.decagames.com and https://athinkingape.com/).

This is a remote position. You can work from anywhere in the world but working hours are in the PST timezone (9 a.m. - 6 p.m. PST).

What We Do

Live Ops Experts Breathing New Life into Old Games

DECA Games uses their unique approach to live operations to breathe new life into games on the decline. The team works with games studios and developers who lack the resources to handle the responsibilities of running a game as a service. DECA Games provides a way for developers to profit from the long tail of games and enhances the experience for a game’s dedicated fanbase with their long term approach to games as a service. They handle all community management, product management, feature development, art, customer support, live events and promotion planning to ensure a high quality integrated service.

WHAT DO WE BELIEVE IN?
Small smart teams trump big organizations. Limit hierarchy.
You should find something challenging and interesting in work.
Fun comes when we learn and succeed together.
Trusting our employees. We trust them to do what they think is best and to do what’s right for the company.
Flexible hours and locations as long as the projects don’t suffer.
Every employee should feel like they have impact on their product and team.

DECA Games is an Embracer Group company.
