Shadowburn
SHADOWBURN · WE'RE HIRING

Join the Team

Shadowburn is built by volunteers who care about doing WotLK right. We're looking for a few more hands before launch — no pay, but real ownership over a project people will actually play.

WHY JOIN

Small Team, Real Impact

We're still pre-launch, which means every person who joins now shapes how Shadowburn actually works — not just fixes what's already broken. You'll work directly with the core team, no red tape, and your name goes in the credits when we launch.

OPEN POSITIONS

What We Need Right Now

Filled

Core Developer

Work on the C++ side of Shadowburn — core stability, custom module scripting (Battle Pass, Fair Play shop and more) and engine-level fixes that the database alone can't solve.

Looking For
  • Comfortable reading and writing C++
  • Familiarity with AzerothCore or TrinityCore is a big plus
  • Basic Git — we'll teach you our workflow
  • Enjoys tracking down the root cause, not just patching symptoms

Database Developer

Work directly on the database side of Shadowburn — quest fixes, spell corrections, loot tables, NPC data, and the custom systems that make the server unique (Battle Pass, the Fair Play shop, and more).

Looking For
  • Comfortable writing and debugging MySQL / MariaDB queries
  • Familiarity with AzerothCore or TrinityCore DB structure is a big plus
  • Basic Git — we'll teach you our workflow
  • Enjoys digging through old WoW data to get details right

Graphic Developer

Shape how Shadowburn looks. Banners, icons, social media graphics, in-game loading screens and the visual assets across the website — you'd own the art direction alongside the existing frost/shadow theme.

Looking For
  • A portfolio — Photoshop, Illustrator, or your tool of choice
  • Comfortable working within an existing visual style
  • Bonus: experience with WoW-specific assets (icons, UI, loading screens)
  • Reliable turnaround on small, frequent requests

3/5 Filled

Game Master

Help keep Shadowburn fair and fun. Game Masters handle in-game support tickets, moderate chat, investigate bug reports and exploits, and make sure players get help when they need it — without ever touching combat balance.

Looking For
  • Fluent in written English
  • A few hours a week, flexible schedule
  • Calm under pressure, fair and consistent judgment
  • Private server experience is a plus, not required
