Your responsibilities...

  • Consider the skills and talents of your team members and use their experience to identify risk, build roadmaps, and become a force-multiplier for your team
  • You will set clear technical direction, intent, and best practices within your team and to both technical and non-technical team members
  • Identify risks and blockers early and proactively removing them
  • Work effectively in an open and collaborative environment

The skills and experience you'll bring to the role...
  • Expert knowledge of C++, with 3 or more years professional experience coding in C++
  • Strong understanding of game-development related 3D maths principles
  • Professional leadership skills to lead a low-level systems development team
  • Experience iteratively implementing low-level engine features from inception to delivery
  • Experience working in all phases of game development, from feature design and implementation to bug-fixing
  • Experience working closely with design teams to elicit requirements and design low-level engine systems

It's a bonus if you have...
  • Professional development experience with real-time networked multiplayer games
  • Professional Unreal Engine 4 development experience on PC and consoles
  • Experience with multi-threaded development
  • Experience developing for Scarlett, PS5, Xbox One and PS4
  • Experience profiling and optimising code for optimal CPU, memory, and bandwidth usage
  • Experience developing procedurally generated environments

Perks and benefits include...
  • Substantial performance-related pay system, along with enhanced pension contributions and life assurance scheme
  • Bespoke visa and relocation packages for you and your family, with support from their team throughout the whole process
  • Industry-leading fully paid 30 weeks maternity leave and 10 weeks paternity leave
  • Private Medical and Dental Cover for you and your family, along with a 24/7 digital GP service
  • Extensive mental health support, with line manager mental health training, a group of mental health First-Aiders, and on-site or remote counselling
  • Bespoke learning and development course framework to help you grow as an employee, manager, and leader
