Helsinki or Berlin
Are you a proactive IT & Security Specialist up for safeguarding our systems & ensuring regulatory compliance?
If yes, Metacore could be the right place for you
We are a game company from Helsinki, now also in Berlin, best known for our hit game Merge Mansion and our people-first company culture.
