Our vision is to make Avakin a collaborative, user-driven game that’s accessible to all. With a PC version coming soon, join our team to be a part of Avakin’s exciting journey. Some of the benefits of working here include:
Working at Lockwood is challenging in all of the right ways. The continued growth of Avakin means I get to constantly evolve my skills while scaling the backend infrastructure. It’s a genuinely exciting environment with great people.
Testing can be challenging; you must adapt quickly to solve problems in an environment that evolves rapidly, but working with the team to create a great end-user experience is very rewarding.
Fashion-based job roles within the gaming industry are not at all common, so it is amazing to have such a niche position here at Lockwood. Reading all of the users' positive reactions/comments from each collection released is highly satisfying and rewarding.
More so than any previous company I’ve worked at, the team here feels like a true unit. Communication is very open within Lockwood, meaning everyone feels like they’re on the same page and working together towards a common goal. It really feels like Avakin’s continuing success is a shared success.
After helping set up Lockwood in 2009, director Halli now oversees the product and business development of the company.
Technologist, founder of Unity, Director at Lockwood and a passionate entrepreneur. David is helping Lockwood innovate and build upon its rapid growth.
Karl has over 20 years’ experience in the videogame industry and now supports the studio team, as well as Lockwood’s business development.
