We are looking for someone with skills to investigate, define and create the highly polished gameplay, scalable tools and efficient engine technology that drives our games. Whether you are contributing on animation, pathfinding, physics, UX or special effects, this is more than just coding a feature in a single system; it is about contributing to the vision from user facing tools, all the way to the nut and bolts of the engine.

  • Provide recommendations to management, as well as follow on solutions, to achieve strategic and operational goals
  • Work is done mostly in C++, but Python is also required for authoring workflows
  • Follow best practices, development processes, and coding standards
  • Create and implement well-engineered, reliable, maintainable, and bug-free code
  • Ability to work under tight time constraints and deadlines
  • Able to own large engine features from start to finish
  • Must have a positive and supportive attitude and enjoy working with others
Qualifications
  • 5+ years of experience in a programming role
  • BS or higher in Computer Science or a related discipline
  • Must be legally able to work in the United States
  • Excellent communication across disciplines
  • Solid 3D math skills
  • Understanding of game AI and animation concepts
  • Passionate about making great games
Bonus Factors
  • 5+ years of academic or personal experience in game development
  • Experience shipping industry leading AI or animation systems technology
