This company certainly needs no introduction – Nintendo (任天堂) of America– is looking to hire a technical writer, production assistant and an executive assistant (Click here for job openings: https://nintendo.taleo.net/careersection/10000/jobdetail.ftl).
The masterminds behind MarioTM and the WiiTM need strong bilingual writers and assistants to work in their American headquarters in Redmond, WA – half an hour away from Seattle. The technical writer position is on a contract basis, while the two assistant positions are full-time.
Although the requirements vary for all three positions, your Japanese and English communication skills (“including jargon, slang, and idioms,” they emphasize) will come in handy here, along with any and all gaming experience (Pokémon® or 花札 anyone?).
