As a company we are committed to providing our team members with a great work environment and the tools necessary to help you succeed.

**Compensation**

As a remote international company, our compensation is determined by considering competitive market rates, experience, and cost of living.

**Projects**

As our projects are still in early stages, some details are limited but more information will be shared as applicants progress further in the interview process.

**About CaptureAge**

CaptureAge is a company that grew out of the Age of Empires community and is now partnered with Microsoft / XBox Game Studios to provide game development services in AAA titles like Age of Empires II and Age of Empires IV. We are looking for people to join us who share our passion for one or both of these titles.

**Hours / Time Management**

We have a flexible approach to time-management and we believe in giving team members the opportunity to control their own schedules. We'd like to see a world in which work can fit around your life, not the other way around In practice this generally means a few pre-agreed sync points a week, with the rest of your working time entirely up to you.

**Async Biased**
As a company spanning many time zones we naturally tend towards async working arrangements and design our processes and working environment with this in mind.

**Consensus Driven**
We try to foster a genuinely collaborative and consensus driven approach to work rather than top-down direction and micro-management.
