Why Monarch
Small team. Large output.
You ship mods, tools, and live servers that players depend on Monday.
Roles span Monarch Modding, Operation Monarch, and Monarch Software.
Remote-first. New Hampshire base. Deliberate work, not slide decks.
Life
Why work here
A small company by headcount and a large one by output. You join a studio that already ships for live communities — and that expects you to do the same.
01 Ships on Monday
Ships on Monday
Work lands on live Operation Monarch and partner servers. Players notice if a weapon, script, or panel is late. You will see your output in the wild the same week you merge it — not in a deck, not in a staging folder that never ships.
02 One studio, three doors
One studio, three doors
Monarch Modding, Monarch Software, and Operation Monarch sit under one roof. The people who built a weapon platform are the same people who can wire it to a site, staff an event weekend, or patch configs after a game update. You are not handed to a different vendor when the scope shifts.
03 Cadence, not chaos
Cadence, not chaos
Work runs on two-week sprints with named leads. You always know what is meant to ship before a wipe or patch window. We do not re-brief a new person every season, and we do not invent process theatre to hide a missed date.
04 Remote, not anonymous
Remote, not anonymous
We are remote-first with a home base in New Hampshire. Async by default: write it down, ship it, be reachable when a live box needs you. Timezones are honest. Accountability sits on the work, not on hours in a chair.

What we look for
Specialists who already speak DayZ, not generalists learning on your first sprint.
Hire
How we hire
We hire when the person is right, not only when a seat is listed. The path is short on purpose.
01
Read the role
Open the listing. If the work matches what you already ship, apply. If it does not, a general note still reaches us — we hire when the person is right, not only when a seat is listed.
02
Apply with work we can look at
Send a short application and something we can open: a workshop page, a repo, a panel, a server you run. We read the work before we read the cover letter.
03
Short call
A conversation about how you work, what you have shipped, and whether Monarch’s cadence fits. No puzzle rounds. No twelve-stage funnel.
04
First scoped week
If it is a fit, we start with a defined first week — a real brief, a named lead, and a ship date. You will know quickly whether the studio and the work are right.
