Electronic Arts

We exist to inspire the world to play, and we’re looking for the right people to make that happen. As we bring new forms of entertainment to people around the world through our games, experiences, and new ways to play, we need innovative, collaborative, diverse, and adaptable people to keep making Electronic Arts better.

You will be working to incubate new potential titles in the EA Lifestyle Group. We build games for Imaginative Creators; games that allow players to create something that is an expression of their unique personality.

In this role, you will be part of a small incubation team focused on prototyping new game concepts for web and social platforms. This is a hands-on engineering role: you will rapidly turn design ideas into interactive, playable prototypes, adapt existing EA assets for new mediums, and work closely with designers and artists to capture and elevate the goals of each concept. You will also partner with other engineers to explore and adapt emerging technologies, finding ways to bring new capabilities into our prototyping process and, ultimately, to market. You will play a central role in shaping EA’s exploration of new forms of play by delivering prototypes that can be tested, refined, and used to push the boundaries of what games can be.
