Job Description

We're looking for a highly detail-oriented Engine Programmer to own the stability, speed, and reliability of our mission-critical automated build and integration systems. You will act as a critical technical bridge between Programming, Art, and Design teams, ensuring the reliability of our build pipeline. You will immediately impact developer productivity by driving down failure rates, optimizing build times, and implementing preventive measures to maintain a high-quality codebase.

What you'll do

  • Work within our in-house build orchestration to monitor system health, implement systematic troubleshooting, and perform root cause analysis to prevent recurring issues.
  • Implement and manage quality gates, including static code analysis and data validation tools, ensuring all code merges meet high standards before reaching development branches.
  • Provide timely, clear incident communication and technical documentation while driving cross-team collaboration to resolve complex, cross-system errors.
  • Proactively identify error patterns and bottlenecks in the build process and champion a continuous improvement mindset by proposing and implementing workflow optimization solutions.
  • Design, implement, and maintain tools to enhance the efficiency of build workflows, system diagnostics, and reporting

What you need

  • Excellent C++ skills
  • A proactive problem-solver with a strong background in large-scale software development environments and system diagnostics
  • Strong capability in debugging complex build failures, performing root cause analysis, and implementing diagnostics and error logging
  • Deep familiarity with modern source control systems (Perforce and/or Git), including branching, merging, and build triggering mechanisms
  • High attention to detail, strong analytical thinking, and a demonstrable sense of urgency when performing rapid triage and resolution of critical incidents
  • Excellent cross-team collaboration and incident communication skills, with the ability to clearly articulate technical issues and trade-offs to programmers, artists, and other stakeholders
  • Experience working with AAA game engines and a variety of game engine systems and technologies, with a focus on programming excellence and a passion for well-designed and architected systems
