Frontier is one of the world's leading game developer

Frontier was founded in 1994 by David Braben, co-author of the seminal 'Elite', to carry forward his groundbreaking work and development ethos into projects with a scale and ambition that only teams of skilled professionals can tackle. David plays a very active role in the company. With a talented team of developers and experienced managers he has helped Frontier successfully to navigate three exciting decades of the ever-changing technology landscape of mass-market gaming platforms and overseen Frontier's emergence as one of the worldwide games industry's leading independent developers. Frontier’s development strengths are immersive, fun gameplay design and unparalleled artistic quality underpinned and enabled by cutting-edge technology development and a talent for getting the best out of hardware and UI. They get their games into customers’ hands by: i) working with a number of top publishers, with whom they have developed long term relationships, and ii) a growing number of self-published titles using digital distribution channels on the major gaming platforms. They are currently over 200 individuals with development studios in Cambridge, UK and Halifax, Canada. They are actively looking to recruit strong candidates, both graduate and industry experienced, in all areas to work on their exciting, diverse mix of projects on cutting-edge gaming platforms.
