Let’s Hear it From the Team
You’re probably wondering what it’s like planning bank heists for a living? Or getting your work seen by millions of people as an intern? Let’s give the word to some of the people making our games a reality.

It’s a special thing to work with people who simply just love what they do each day.
Starbreeze is a very diverse company in all areas, and thanks to that we have created a sort of a “come as you are”-culture. The old stereotypes of the gaming industry are now way outdated. It’s no longer a harsh “dudes crunching in a cave”-world, but rather an amazing mix of personalities that are aligned in the fact that all angles and backgrounds are needed to create awesomeness.
Sure, it still takes commitment to deliver a game, but that comes naturally if you let the passion of happy people be the guiding light.

Being surrounded by super talented, driven and overall awesome colleagues makes it fun to go to work and that's what makes Starbreeze great.
A big part of Payday’s success has been the VO from both enemies and heisters. There are plenty of memorable and funny lines that have gotten special recognition by the fans. The music is what drives the heists forward, gets you pumped and deceivingly tapping into your greed to go for that extra bag, even when you know it’s not a good idea.
The evolution of the company has given me the opportunity to really broaden my experience for these past 10 years. From shooting live-action trailers to planning audio systems in VR parks and, of course, making kick ass games on various platforms and genres. But the biggest reason for why I’ve stayed is the people and the culture. We’re a small team with a big sound.

Quality Assurer
Since 2022
To anybody thinking about taking an internship – go for it! It'll be for sure one of the best experiences in your life.
There is so much to learn by being inside and behind the curtains of a game developing company. You’ll be inspired, evolve and thrive. Hopefully creating memories and gaining experiences that will elevate you both personally and professionally.
The tough and hectic parts are compensated for with all the joy and motivation we get from delivering good quality products.
Mikael Eyewood
Head of Quality Assurance
Since 2014
A lot of people think that the job is sitting on a couch and playing a game from start to finish. In reality it is much more challenging than that.
Every aspect of a game has to be tried and tested. And then there is also the fun too, of course. We really are a dedicated team of varying backgrounds. Everyone brings something unique whether it is experience, education or expertise
Q. Are there any similarities between bank robbers and the QA team?
Planning, planning, planning. And then adapting when that plan fails.
