  • A lot! You’ll be doing a bit of everything: Pipeline, source control, configuring builds, buildings tools and working on Unreal features
  • Making our CI/CD process as streamlined as possible as we hit deliverables
  • Write clean C++ code within Unreal and write documentation for your future teammates
  • Move the studio’s technology forward and champion the adoption of new techniques, tools and principles
  • Deliver a stable and beautifully crafted game to the target platform before managing the KPIs on it
  • As we grow, you’ll start to mature our Engineering philosophies and bring in new talent to take our game through Production.

  • Thrive in environments where you can work autonomously, without micromanagement 
  • Growth mindset. We learn from every mistake we make. We know you won’t get everything perfect every time and we don’t expect you to.
  • You can balance focus between output and hitting your own goals while thinking about how to contribute to the greater good
  • Solid technical experience across our tech stack, which includes Unreal, C++, TeamCity and Perforce - however we’re open to other tools and technologies
