About Nexus Mods
What is Nexus Mods?
Nexus Mods is the world's largest videogame-modding platform — over 750,000 mods across 2,500+ games, serving the communities behind Skyrim, Fallout, Baldur's Gate 3, Cyberpunk 2077 and thousands more. Founded in 2001 by Robin Scott as a Morrowind fan site, it grew through TESSource and TESNexus into the definitive home of PC game modification, and it pays mod creators over $4.2 million a year through its donation points system. In June 2025 Scott sold the company to Chosen, a growth-focused gaming company, publicly reassuring the community that paid-mods, NFT or crypto schemes are not on the roadmap.
Where will I work?
Mostly from home: current openings are nearly all remote (UK-anchored), with a hybrid People & Culture role at the Exeter, England headquarters. The team is around 77 people, engineering-heavy.
What is the Nexus Mods team like?
Engineers, community and operations people who are mostly modders and gamers themselves, running one of the biggest fan-content infrastructures on the internet — file delivery at enormous scale, moderation, creator payments and the Vortex mod manager.
Work-Life Balance
The careers page says it as plainly as any company we list: "4 - day work week — We strongly believe in work-life balance and work a four-day week with no reduction in pay." Job listings spell out the arithmetic: a 4-day week of 32 hours, with no reduction in pay. That is the genuine article — fewer hours, full salary.
Perks and Benefits
- Four-day, 32-hour week at full pay
- 25 days annual leave including bank holidays, increasing with service
- Private medical insurance via Bupa
- £25/month gaming credit "to spend on games, or your favourite subscriptions"
- Company pension; remote-first UK team
Note: Nexus Mods hires through a JS-only careers portal our scraper can't yet read — check nexusmods.com/about/careers for openings (a scraper integration is on our roadmap).
