We are looking for an experienced Porting Programmer who will be responsible for maintaining and optimising Playdead titles, legacy and future, for a range of platforms (console, desktop and mobile).

  • Optimizing builds using Unity and our custom engine
  • Low level programming and debugging of existing builds
  • Developing and optimizing our porting tools together with the wider development team
What we would like to see
  • Professional experience working with Unity (custom engine experience is nice to have)
  • Deep technical experience and competence working with C++ and C#
  • A background in porting to different types of platforms (mobile platform experience is nice to have)
  • You enjoy working with system limitations and finding solutions to optimization problems.
  • You have a collaborative spirit and work to solve problems as a member of the wider production team
  • You are excited by the thought of maintaining and optimizing our games to the highest standard

We are open minded about the technologies we deploy and always open to consider new options to solve emerging challenges.
