该公司在网上岗位招聘列表中写道，“Zynga公司正在建立一个世界级的西雅图网络工程师团队，虚位以待各个级别的联合工程师和建筑师。”

据VentureBeat网站报道，Zynga公司已确认了他们建立西雅图工作室的计划。西雅图还是许多其他主流电子游戏开发商和发行商的摇篮，比如说任天堂美国（Nintendo of America）、微软、索尼在线娱乐（Sony Online Entertainment）、PopCap、Bungie、Valve Software等。

Zynga公司目前已有1200多名雇员，分布在世界13个不同的工作室，前不久还打算将其旧金山总部搬到曾是世嘉美国（Sega of America）总办事处的一个更宽敞的大厦。

该公司在最近六个月共收购了6个游戏工作室，包括北京XPD传媒，东京Unoh、奥斯汀Challenge Games、法兰克福Dextrose以及前微软游戏工作室、Zynga耗资630万美元得手的Bonfire Studios（位于美国拉达斯市）。（本文为游戏邦/gamerboom.com编译）

Zynga Opening Seattle Studio
 
Continuing its rapid expansion, FarmVille company Zynga is opening a Seattle office and hiring a team of web engineers for the new location, according to recently-posted job listings.

“Zynga is building a world-class team of web engineers in Seattle!” the company posted in its online job listings board. “We are hiring at all levels from associate engineers to architects.”

The social game studio confirmed its plans to establish Zynga Seattle to VC news site VentureBeat. The area is also home to a number of other major video game developers and publishers, such as Nintendo of America, Microsoft, Sony Online Entertainment, PopCap, Bungie, Valve Software and others.

Zynga already has more than 1,200 employees spread out across at least 13 studios around the world. It also recently made plans to move its San Francisco headquarters to a larger building that once served as the main office for Sega of America.

The developer has acquired six studios in the past six months: XPD Media in Beijing, Unoh in Tokyo, Challenge Games in Austin, Conduit Labs in Boston, Dextrose in Frankfurt, and most recently Bonfire Studios in Dallas — an SEC filing for the last purchase suggests that Zynga paid at least $6.3 million for Bonfire. （source:gamasutra）
