External Description:

Team Overview

At Electronic Arts, we exist to Inspire the World to Play. We bring great entertainment to people around the world and deliver new games, new experiences, and new ways to play. In a time when we need to stay physically apart, it’s amazing to see how people are using games as a way to connect. We are adapting and forging ahead in service of our players by expanding our teams and hiring.

At the CrowdStar studio, we believe that there is a huge opportunity in interactive entertainment products for women, and our goal is to build products which engage, enrich and empower them.  

With our two top grossing titles, Covet Fashion and Design Home, CrowdStar has developed new ways for users (players) to enjoy fashion and interior design. Not only are we changing how women game, we’re also changing how they discover and shop for everything from clothing to shoes, or furniture to home decor. As a team, we are passionate not only about creating fun and engaging games for women but enriching lives outside of the game.

Help drive and mentor the engineering team through feature design, implementation, and debugging processes to deliver robust code consistently.  Collaborate on and promote a thriving company culture that features online happy hours, social events, and game jams/hack-a-thons.
