micro1 is engaging Godot Game Developers to participate in a dynamic project for a valued customer, focusing on crafting engaging interactive experiences using the Godot engine. In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input. This is an exciting opportunity for seasoned professionals who take pride in clear written and verbal communication, and who are ready to apply their Godot skills to real-world deliverables.

Participate in iterative development cycles, contributing insights to improve playability and engagement.
Support the adaptation of project assets and logic to meet evolving scope requirements.

Preferred Qualifications

A portfolio or verifiable published work (personal site, itch.io, Steam, GitHub, game jam entries, or shipped title credits). Your portfolio is the most important part of your application and plays a major role in our selection, so please include the work that best represents your skills.
Advanced proficiency with at least one major game engine (Unity, Godot, Unreal), including editor tools, scene management, and debugging utilities.
Comfort with engine scripting languages such as C#, GDScript, C++, or Blueprints, with the ability to interpret, troubleshoot, and enhance gameplay logic.
Proven ability to identify and resolve gameplay issues through iterative playtesting.
Strong written communication skills for drafting precise task instructions and acceptance criteria.
Experience in game QA, technical design, systems design, automated testing, or prior contribution to AI evaluation projects is a plus.
