Netflix is hiring for a "a brand-new AAA PC game" at its new LA studio that is being led by former Overwatch boss Chacko Sonny, according to MobileGamer.biz that spotted the job listing.
"We’re looking for a creative and highly-skilled Game Director to help us forge the game direction and creative vision on a brand-new AAA PC game," reads the job listing. "As Game Director, you will be the creative leader of one of Netflix’s first generation of internally developed original games."
The ideal candidate for the Game Director job has "experience with FPS and/or third-person shooter games is preferred" and has "extensive experience working on live service games."
This likely means the game will either be a first-person shooter or a third-person shooter and will be a live service game.
