Key Responsibilities:

  • Work closely with the Game Design team to identify key systems and mechanics that will drive the player experience.
  • Design, architect, and implement key gameplay systems and functionality, raising the bar on best practices and quality of code delivered.
  • Maintain a high level of code quality and continuously improve existing gameplay systems to ensure they are robust and maintainable.
  • Contribute to the big picture when it comes to how the game works technically, but have a strong focus on the details and how everything adds up.

  • You have experience with ECS/ENTT (e.g. ECS design principles, data locality, and how to design systems with these principles in mind).
  • You can speak 'Game Designer' and 'Artist' (i.e. being able to communicate well with designers and artists, not just to understand what they want, but also share their excitement and joy).

Benefits:

  • We offer 25 days annual leave + 1 free day off for your birthday + bank holidays of your employment locations.
  • We give everyone the option to take extra paid time off to recharge after intense periods of time.
