We're making a football game

GOALS is our attempt to give football the game it deserves.
A fair game, that is a reflection of football, rather than the football industry. We want to make a game that’s fun right away, without players having to invest a fortune.

It’s a game about winning, but one where victory comes in more forms than simply winning matches. Focus on trick shots, design awesome t-shirts or create an arena that inspires greatness. No two players will be on the same journey.

GOALS is for everyone, like football can and should be. It’s for the casuals and the pros. For the players, the managers and the fans. It’s for the designers, the audience and the divas. For everyone who loves the game itself or anything surrounding it. GOALS is football.

At GOALS you will be the champion of our UI system, making sure that it's robust and scalable allowing for fast iterations and short release cycles.

Ideally you have...

• 5+ years of professional experience working as a UI Engineer, or similar, in the games industry
• Previously worked on at least one PC game. Console game experience is meritorious
• Skills in Unreal Engine, UMG, C++ Programming
