Technical Artist Games (m/f/d)

EDURINOs vision is to teach children 21st century skills with the power of games. We re-think how children play and learn and develop a hybrid play-based learning system that combines hard- and software. Haptic figurines and a stylus pen are the key to adaptive learning games.

With our Series A funding of €10,5 million (by DN Capital, Tengelmann Ventures, FJ Labs, btov and Emerge Education), we’ll be able to accelerate the development of new learning worlds, grow our team further and expand our reach to more learners around the globe!
