Some of your role:

  • Manage a mix of 3-8 managers and individual contributors, including career planning, performance management, goal setting, review writing, and review delivery
  • Lead senior technologists in architecting and designing Game Systems to empower creators and technologists to create Hytale's gameplay experiences
  • Work closely with Product Owners and engineers to align the technical vision of the tech owned by teams in your area to the design objectives for the product
  • Coach technologists to scope and estimate deliverables, then work closely with Producers to build and maintain a roadmap of product milestones based on that data
  • Plan and execute long term strategies that benefit your team, the product, and the studio

Essential Traits:

  • 6+ years of professional programming experience in C++ or similar language
  • 4+ years as a manager, tech-lead, or in a similar leadership role, including experience with recruiting, leading individual contributors and managers, goal setting, organization design, and performance management

Bonus Traits:

  • Experience working with Agile delivery
  • Experience working on voxel world games and/or sandbox games
  • Experience implementing in ECS systems or Data-Oriented Development
  • Experience with console and/or mobile platform development
  • Experience implementing one or more Game Systems, such as Environments, Character Controls, Combat, Animation, Camera, Physics, Inventory, etc

We can offer:

  • Quality of Life increases
  • Christmas closure
  • A chance to work on a new game project with an extremely motivated team
  • Opportunities to learn and grow personally and professionally
