The AA studio I work at likes to hire from employee reference, it's a pretty chill and fun place to work. Anyhow I'm told we're about to start putting ads up looking for some positions, specifically Lead Game Design. Main office on the west coast but a number of guys work remotely. I'm assuming US only but I could check into that.
Also don't be put off by the title, it's essentially "idea guy" lol.
Thought I'd mention here as a way of giving back to the community that's helped me get where I am today.
Competitive wage, pretty good benefits and some employer matching thing I don't use, etc.

Hit me with a couple of your best ideas and I'll let you know if it seems like it would be worth your time to pursue.

Metroid + Castlevania
