The streaming giant posted job listings for key positions on a new project to be helmed by its newly announced Los Angeles-based in-house games studio. These positions include game director, art director, technical director, producer and engineer.

"We’re looking for a creative and highly-skilled game director to help us forge the game direction and creative vision on a brand-new AAA PC game," reads one of the listings, which was first spotted by Mobilegamer.biz. "As Game Director, you will be the creative leader of one of Netflix’s first generation of internally developed original games."

While the listing doesn't dive into details about the project, it does say that candidates should ideally have some experience working on first- and third-person shooters and "live service" type games, along with implementing features within a prototype built on Unreal Engine. The listing also prefers candidates who are "deeply passionate about social systems and gameplay – both cooperative and competitive," suggesting the project is set to be a multiplayer experience.
