Join the Team

We don't have much in the way of titles at LuckyLabs, but here's what we are looking for right now:

Engineer

Making great games and consumer apps isn't easy. We have to solve both complex and simple problems. We take pleasure in delighting our users. And we believe for our users instant gratification isn't fast enough!

Requirements:

  • You get stuff done. You can have a rough prototype done this afternoon.
  • You derive joy from beautiful, efficient code
  • You are eager to roll up sleeves and tackle elusive, dirty problems (and simple ones)
  • You balance idealism and pragmatism

Desirable:

  • Deep knowledge of front-end Web technologies
  • iOS and/or Android development experience
  • Passion for programming languages, compilers, databases
  • Interest in both the nitty gritty and the big picture
  • Interest in both coding and leadership

General Requirements:

In addition to role-specific requirements, we have expectations that apply to all of our team members.

  • Honesty
  • Passion
  • Intensity
  • Humor (and Irreverence)
  • Fearlessness working outside your comfort zone
  • Desire to always be learning
  • Patience
  • Able to admit when you are wrong
  • No attitude — check the ego at the door
  • Urgency to get stuff done
  • Dare to be commercial — the only award we want to win is love from our users

Generally Desirable:

  • Renaissance person who enjoys wearing many hats
  • Wide array of interests, beyond software and games
  • Entrepreneurial!
  • Many people would describe you as crazy (but in a good way!)

We are making an exciting and creative culture, to attract and retain the best people. You should be ready to make LuckyLabs a primary focus of your life, as we do. You must be in or willing to relocate to work in Cambridge, MA: working together is so much more than a shared codebase. We work, eat, and play together.

Interested?

Email us at jobs@luckylabs.com and tell us a little about yourself. Principals only please. Links to your github/portfolio/weekend projects are all helpful. Know someone else who'd be a great fit? We'd love to meet them (and thank you).

Perks

  • Small company with smart, dedicated, and passionate peers. We are as dedicated to building a fantastic culture as we are to building great products.
  • Located in Kendall Square (steps to the T) in Cambridge, MA. (One subway stop from Boston.)
  • Medical coverage
  • Fully stocked kitchen and fridge
  • A sweet development machine
  • Doctor Who expertise 24/7
  • Neckties and ball gowns optional
