New Westminster, Canada Offworld Industries Ltd. Full time

About the role:

As a key contributor, you should be comfortable with holding a lot of responsibility for making console-specific changes to an existing PC game on Unreal Engine. You’ll coordinate your work with other developers on the title.

As a mentor, you should be able to recognize teaching opportunities for other programmers when they arise, and be willing to guide team members to successful outcomes, both inside and outside programming. Providing accurate and constructive feedback during peer reviews is key to this.

As a role model, you should hold yourself to a high standard and be comfortable setting a good example for the other members of the team. The code that you write should be clean, performant, easy to maintain, future-proof and well architected code. When writing code you should be able to adhere to clear coding standards as second nature, and be able to contribute to the improvement of those standards. In general when building systems you should be inventive and find ways to push the envelope with our technical solutions.

  2. Making changes to game systems to make them compatible with consoles.
  3. Analyzing and improving game performance on consoles.
  4. Adapting to unfamiliar areas of code or concepts when investigating a problem.
  5. Work closely with the rest of the programming team to assist in development, to be a positive contributor to improvement and integration of new code.
  6. Coordinating with the testing team to work on fixes for bugs.
  7. Working with members of other departments on cross-department features [e.g., sound, animation, VFX].
  8. Coordinating with the devops team regarding building and CI processes for consoles.

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, or equivalent.
  • Minimum of 5 years full-time experience working as a game programmer with at least 2 years working on console games
  • Worked on at least one game using Unreal Engine.
  • Excellent understanding of C++.
  • Familiarity with command-line tools and operations.
