CTO/Producer (Unity Game Developer + AI agents)

🎮 We’re looking for founding-level people to help build a new kind of game company.

Not a standard job.

Not a salary-first hire.

This is an EQUITY-ONLY LEADERSHIP ROLE at this stage for people who want to build something ambitious from the ground up.

We’re building Lake System / Lake Lab — a Germany + Portugal setup focused on co-op PC games.

Our model is simple:

We develop concepts fast, validate demand early with our publishing partners, and put real production behind the winners.

Right now, we’re hiring for this key role:

CTO / Lead Developer / Producer

Berlin, Germany | Remote, Berlin-based strongly preferred

You’ll lead the programming side of our active projects and help us apply for German / European grants.

We’re looking for someone who can bridge:

- engineering leadership (Unity)

- team management

- production execution

- building an internal AI stack (scraping data from Steam and TikTok)

- grant / fund applications

Experience with German or EU funding for games is a major plus.

Who this role is for:

- senior builder (Unity)

- people with founder energy

- people who want ownership, not just employment

- people who can lead teams and make decisions under uncertainty

- people excited by games, systems, speed, and long-term upside

What we offer:

- equity-only founding role at this stage

- salary as soon as we raise the first investment round or greenlight the first title

- real influence over company direction

- remote setup

- the chance to build a company with serious ambition from day one
