James ‘IceOfWraith’ Manker is joining CubeCoders full-time from February 2026 - our first full-time engineer beyond Michael. His move marks a big step forward for AMP’s ongoing development and CubeCoders’ continued growth.
Hiring our first full-time engineer!
James ‘IceOfWraith’ Manker has been working part-time for CubeCoders since January 2024, but we’re really excited to announce that he’s going to be joining us full-time starting in February 2026. This will make James CubeCoders’ first full-time engineer aside from Michael.
He will continue to work on development of AMP 2, fixing outstanding issues and building out new features while also working some of the time on CubeCoders’ back-end infrastructure to help prepare CubeCoders for future growth. The result is a significant increase in the number of working hours afforded to AMP each week.
James originally started simply as another community member by building generic module templates for AMP to help it run more games, but quickly took an interest in working on AMP itself as well as some of the other consumer facing tools such as the Configuration Generator.
A user of AMP himself since early 2021, James was the obvious choice for his enthusiasm, familiarity and hands-on experience with the platform. We’re really looking forward to benefiting more from his experience.
This is a really exciting time for CubeCoders. We’ve enjoyed multiple years of incredible growth, and so now we hope to reward the faith our customers have placed in us by investing into the business and into the software we make, and that you enjoy.
