About the role

We’re seeking a Senior Gameplay Engineer to rapidly integrate with our prototyping pre-production team, with a focus on architecting and delivering robust gameplay systems.

This role requires a combination of leveraging past experience to roll out smart solutions to engineering problems and working with the many systems of Unreal Engine 5 to achieve rapid results.

You will be working with other experienced engineers within the programming team to implement key systems (combat, player activities, multiplayer, crafting, game economy, etc.), ensuring clean, scalable code. You will be able to demonstrate autonomy in architecting such core systems that will drive the game, leveraging past experience where possible and focusing on performance, maintainability, and robustness.

Candidates with 5-7+ years of experience in the industry, including hands-on experience with Unreal Engine and gameplay system architecture, are encouraged to apply. Previous experience in senior or lead roles is highly preferred and we are open to interviewing candidates with substantial experience with no prior experience in senior / management roles, but looking to pursue such aspirations.

The position is predominantly for UK timezone remote applicants, with a possibility of working on-site from our office in Guildford, Surrey. Depending on fit and experience, candidates from further afield in the world are welcome to apply.
