We're hiring!

Hylandia's back. We took some time off after a rough patch a while back, but that's behind us now and we're moving forward. With that being said, we're hiring!


Opportunities

We're currently looking for skilled Java engineers. We care a lot about code quality—much more than your past titles or where you've worked.

We're also looking for Rust engineers to work on infrastructure, with the same expectations for code quality.


Compensation
  • Right now: Volunteer
  • Once we're generating revenue: Paid per feature for active contributors
  • Long-term: W-2 roles for people who stick around


Where is Hylandia now?

We've got the original Duels minigame back up and running, similar to how it was before the shutdown, and we're actively pursuing VC funding.


Requirements
  • We use an ATS, so make sure your application clearly highlights the experience below.
  • 1+ year of experience in the relevant language (Java or Rust)
  • Strong code quality standards
  • Comfortable with shifting priorities and evolving project scope
  • All contributed code becomes the property of Hylandia LLC. A standard IP assignment agreement is required before your first PR is merged.
  • Comfortable with Git and a normal pull request workflow
  • Understanding of server performance (e.g. avoiding blocking the main thread and maintaining stable tick rates)
  • Ability to write clean, testable, maintainable code—not just a single large file that works
