  • Systems level 3D math, pointers, templates, and raw blocks of memory are tools to write high-performance code, not your enemies
  • Experience with cross platform projects, including consoles or mobile devices is a plus
  • Detailed designs, rigorous in handling edge cases, and diligent in automated testing
