The studio that made Star Wars: Empire at War and Universe at War: Earth Assault is hiring massively multiplayer online designers for an upcoming project.

Las Vegas-based developer Petroglyph is well known for its real-time strategy games. They made Star Wars: Empire at War and its expansion for Lucas Arts, and the upcoming Universe at War: Earth Assault for SEGA. The studio has a very experienced development team, with credits on other RTS blockbuster games like Command & Conquer series and Civilization III and Dune II: The Building of a Dynasty.
