Company Description

Other duties include: attending Slack meetings (Slack is an instant messaging we communicate with), reporting the progress of the Programming team on a weekly basis and following team policies.

  • A passion for coding and a dedication to creating AAA quality games

Preferred Requirements:

  • Blueprint scripting experience
  • Git Experience
  • UI (User Interface) experience
  • At least 1 Unreal Engine project (using C++) prepared to show prior to the interview. If you do not have one, we can give you an assignment to complete (we will give you 2 weeks to complete it) to test your abilities.
