At Next, we are rethinking how organizations from all over the world innovate: from Johnson & Johnson and Orange, to the World Economic Forum, BNP Paribas, Vodafone, and Covéa. On our quest, we’re looking for a Game Developer Intern eager to work on a world-class application used by high performing customers!

You will be responsible to design and develop a mini game within our application. You can expect your code (JavaScript, optionally Java) to be pushed into production multiple times per day. You will work hand-in-hand with users, UX designer and other developers to make your ideas wow users. Depending on your interests, the focus of your work could be on game design and/or coding. We expect you to take ownership over your work and to push the limits of innovation or as we say “if things never break, you are not taking enough risks”.
