Internship 2027 - Production Assistant Intern

We like to think of ourselves as more than just developers. We're a friendly group of around 300 people with plenty of casual and hardcore gamers, tech heads and creative masterminds, organized planners, and nerdy game fans who make this industry so fun. And we’re all together on a mission to open windows to amazing worlds. We've been making games for over 30 years, crafting and publishing unique experiences that have put us on the path to becoming a leader in Online Worlds.

We've got four studios spread across Norway, the USA, Portugal, and Romania, and we're always on the lookout for more dedicated people to join our ranks.

We're all about creating a relaxed and equal workspace where flat communication and our agile structure are key to delivering world-class games.

So, if you're ready to make your mark, we're ready to welcome you!
