Good to know if you are moving

Scopely is a US company, so international hires typically require a work visa sponsorship; the company has experience with global mobility and relocation support.
The company's Spain-based roles span game development, product, engineering, and corporate functions, offering a wide range of entry points for international professionals.
Scopely's culture is data-driven and product-focused, with a strong emphasis on live operations (LiveOps) — a valuable environment for professionals coming from traditional game studios.
The company works on globally recognized IPs (Monopoly, Star Trek, Marvel), which can be a strong resume builder for professionals in the gaming industry.
While the global HQ is in the US, the Spain hub is a growing and strategic part of the company's international operations, particularly for product, engineering, and creative roles.
