What’s the Best Job Board for Game Developers and Artists?

What’s the Best Job Board for Game Developers and Artists?


For years, game developers and artists have relied on noisy job boards filled with broken links, outdated listings, and recruiter spam. Finding a real job — at a real studio — became harder than shipping a game itself.

That’s exactly why Jorbly was born.

It started with a simple truth: the gaming industry changes fast. Studios rise and fall, layoffs happen, and even seasoned professionals have to redefine themselves again and again. Patrick Bostwick — Jorbly’s founder and lifelong game industry veteran — lived that experience firsthand.

And like so many others in gaming, he decided to build something better.



🎮 Where Jorbly Began

Patrick’s story runs deep through the worlds of AAA and indie games, art, and leadership. He’s worked with major studios including Disney, Activision Blizzard, and independent teams building titles for console, PC, and Switch.

He’s seen how the system works — and how it fails. Talented people get lost in noise. Studios struggle to find the right candidates. Recruiters flood inboxes with irrelevant roles.

Jorbly was created to fix that cycle — a direct-to-employer job ecosystem built for people who build worlds.

“Like everyone else in gaming, I had to evolve. Instead of chasing the next title, I built a platform that helps others find theirs.” — Patrick Bostwick, Founder of Jorbly



🕹️ The Problem With Traditional Game Job Boards

Most gaming job sites follow the same broken model:

  • ❌ Recruiter reposts that lead nowhere

  • ❌ Expired listings left up for traffic

  • ❌ Duplicate or fake roles used to farm resumes

  • ❌ Fees that lock small studios out of visibility

For developers, artists, and animators, that means wasted time and missed chances. For studios, it means real roles get buried under clutter.



🚀 Why Jorbly Exists

Jorbly flips the traditional model upside down.

✅ 1. Direct-to-Employer Listings

Every job on Jorbly links straight to the studio’s official career page — no recruiters, no middlemen, no hidden fees.

🔁 2. Verified and Refreshed Weekly

Our system uses AI verification and human review to automatically remove filled or outdated jobs, keeping every listing fresh.

🧭 3. Built for Creatives and Technologists

We focus on the roles that power the gaming industry — not generic listings:

  • Game Developers & Programmers

  • Technical & 3D Artists

  • Animators & VFX Specialists

  • Level, Lighting, and UI Designers

  • Producers & QA Leads

🌍 4. Remote, Hybrid, and Onsite Roles

Jorbly helps you find the right fit for your lifestyle — whether you’re joining a small indie team in Tokyo or a AAA studio in Los Angeles.

💸 5. Free for Studios, Fair for Everyone

Small or stealth-mode studios can post for free — because the best opportunities shouldn’t depend on budget.



🎨 The Heart of Jorbly

Jorbly was built by a game developer, for game developers. It’s not just a site — it’s a living ecosystem designed to make job discovery transparent and human again.

Patrick created it because he’s been where you are: rethinking, rebuilding, and rediscovering his next chapter. Jorbly became his way to help others do the same — to give more, help people become better, if not the best.



💬 From the Founder

“The gaming industry is full of talent — people who create worlds, stories, and art that move millions. But the way we hire hasn’t evolved. Jorbly is here to change that — by connecting people directly to real studios, without the noise.” — Patrick Bostwick
