Team Name:
Feral Games Studio
Talent Required:
Senior C++ Game Developer
Rough list of requirements/expectations:
-
Proof & demonstration of a very high level of C++ knowledge. We’re looking to hire someone extremely skilled with C++. This can be in the form of a combination of the following; portfolio material, live titles - AAA or Indie (with clear credits to you or some tangible way of proving your work), schooling accreditation/degrees, and anything else that might be relevant to us seeing your skills in action. This knowledge should have some seriously heavy overlap with Game Development, or should be primarily focused specifically on Game Development overall. We aren’t looking to hire someone to learn on the job, we are hiring you specifically for your deep knowledge, and very honed skill set.
-
High level understanding of network replication as a whole in Game Development. You will likely be working with Epic’s new Iris system for replication, along with the new Mover movement system. Understanding networking is a must for this role, as you will be expected to make all your work fully network replicated where relevant, and you will be helping to build foundational systems that can be utilized through blueprints, also where relevant.
-
The ability to problem solve at a very high level, understanding of proper debugging techniques, & the ability to execute a high level of forward thought with your work. You occasionally might be helping to debug things outside of your normal scope of work as well.
-
Extremely good communication skills. This is a must. Despite this being a short term contract work position to start, we’re looking for someone to bring on board for the long term ideally. If you find you are the type of person that constantly experiences communication issues with others, someone who brings their ego into play constantly, then you aren’t the right fit. You MUST be a team player, be patient with others, and be willing to communicate things at a high level to your team members & team leads. English doesn’t have to be your first language, but you do have to be able to speak/read/write it fluently at a very high level.
-
This one is more of a bonus one, but having a solid understanding of Unreal’s physics system & having some experience working with it that you can directly show would be big bonus points with us. Ideally this would come in the form of C++ engine level physics rewrites, but we’re happy to look at anything related to this subject as a whole for extra brownie points.
Please note: if you do not have the time investment to consistently put in roughly 40 hours a week, then you will not be a good fit for us. We’re on a timetable & quality results will be expected in a timely manner.
Pay:
Contract work with competitive industry standard pay for the role with the potential for bonuses based on performance & other factors. This will be hourly pay, paid bi-weekly, for the duration of the contract work, with the potential of it turning into a full time position long term.
