Ironbelly Studios is comprised of a talented, passionate and dedicated number of game developers from all corners of the globe. Our focus is on creating high quality entertainment experiences as well as providing outsourcing services at a fraction of the cost seen elsewhere.

From humble beginnings Ironbelly has grown to be one of the most trusted names in the indie development space, working on over 300 projects in our 14 years of service, ranging from AAA titles such as Gotham Knights down to small mobile titles. We bring passion and experience together and look for people who put games and their creation in the center of their world.

We are expanding our Production team here at Ironbelly and this time, we are looking for a Project Manager / Producer to help organize and stay on top multiple ongoing projects. As a general overview, we typically have a number of projects in development at any given time in both Unity and Unreal, being managed by 4-6 project managers around the world. This is a remote position so it is critical that you are extremely self-motivated and have no problem working in a virtual setting. We’re based in Montreal, so if you share our timezone, even better. But it’s not required.
