We are currently using Unreal Engine 5 for our production, and you will get a chance to work across many parts of the pipeline including integration, engine improvements, CI/CD pipeline and general ownership of the technology pipeline used across the entire company.

  • Extensive experience with C++.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Able to work autonomously with little supervision.
  • Passionate about high performing code.
  • Excited to work on new features improving workflows for the production pipeline.

The recruitment process:

Screening call: First you will meet with a member of the Talent Acquisition team. This isn't an interview, but a chance to get to know you better, and in turn share more about Alpha Channel and the opportunity.

First Interview: Next you will meet with the hiring team, where we will focus on understanding your previous experience, whilst offering you the opportunity to ask any questions you might have about the role.

Second Interview: Than you will meet with the Technical Director and a Programming team member to do a more in-depth technical conversation & problem solving session in order to give you the opportunity to see how we work together as a team.

Final interview: You will have the chance to talk with the founders of the company in order to discuss and ask questions about when it comes to company & culture fit and career progression if you were to get hired at Alpha Channel.

Don't meet all the requirements?

We care more about outcomes than ticking boxes, and we know the perfect person for the role often has a CV that's a little different.

Research shows that women are particularly less likely to apply if they don't meet all the criteria in a job listing. If you're second guessing yourself, we encourage you to get in touch anyway.

Don't quit before you've started

How can we support you?

We want to set you up for success and make our recruitment process as accessible as possible for you.

In your application, feel free to let us know if you need anything to make your experience or environment more comfortable. We'll do our best to support you
