You should have a broad range of knowledge and be able to context switch easily to provide active support across the team.

Some of your responsibilities include:

  • Design, architect, test and implement game features
  • Take an active part in feature creation and innovation
  • Maintain, innovate and optimise new and existing game features
  • Deliver high-quality and well-structured code
  • Be a role model for less experienced developers

  • Excellent C++ knowledge
  • Experienced with system development, ideally within the game industry
  • Ability to work closely with cross-discipline teams to understand their needs
  • High sense of quality and polish
  • Agile approach and fluency in the methods
