Devops & Release Engineer
Job Summary
Main Context
Join at a pivotal moment as we kick off the pre-production of a new ambitious AA PC/Console project.
Your mission will be to design and build the foundations of our build CI/CD and release ecosystem from the ground upensuring that as the project scales teams can turn code into stable playable builds quickly reliably and at production scale.
What it means on a daily basis
Youll own the CI/CD backbone of our Unreal Engine production pipeline bringing DevOps rigor to game build engineering treating pipelines as code infrastructure as a product and reliability as a metric to track not an accident.
- Design and industrialize Unreal Engine CI/CD pipelines (build cook package deploy) across PC Console and Mobile with reproducibility and idempotency as first-class requirements
- Architect and scale a robust Internal Developer Platform on Kubernetes leveraging Helm and containerized microservices to deploy highly available web tools and studio services outside the core engine
- Implement automated quality gates to shift issue detection left in the pipeline before builds break downstream
- Optimize Perforce as critical infrastructure (streams workspaces sync performance) and operate a hybrid infrastructure (on-prem cloud) with an SRE mindset uptime latency and cost/performance trade-offs guiding decisions on Horde and Zen Server
- Develop internal tooling and self-service capabilities that reduce developer friction and drive release engineering (branching promotion versioning rollback readiness)
What success will look like
Success shows up as invisible infrastructure teams shipping faster without thinking about the platform underneath because it just works.
- Builds are fast reliable and predictable across all platforms with build time and failure rate tracked as core KPIs
- Developers self-serve playable builds and internal tools through a frictionless well-documented golden path
- CI/CD pipelines and the Kubernetes-based Internal Developer Platform scale under production load without breaking backed by proactive capacity and cost monitoring
- Studio web tools and services run highly available with clear ownership and minimal manual intervention
Release processes are stable auditable and traceable with full build provenance and rollback capability across
Who you would be working with
- Game developers (programmers technical artists)
- QA teams
- Production teams
- Technical leadership (Tech Director Leads)
Qualifications :
Who you are
You think in systems not scripts someone whos as comfortable debugging a Perforce sync bottleneck as they are arguing for a better branching strategy in a release review.
- Solid experience building and operating CI/CD pipelines in a game production context (Unreal Engine strongly preferred) ideally across multiple platforms (PC Console Mobile)
- Comfortable with infrastructure-as-code hybrid cloud/on-prem environments and an SRE mindset you reach for metrics and monitoring before you reach for guesses
- Hands-on with Perforce at scale and familiar with tools like Horde Zen Server or equivalent build/orchestration systems
- A builder at heart: youd rather script away a recurring friction point than let developers work around it manually
- Pragmatic and collaborative you know release engineering is a team sport and you communicate trade-offs clearly to both engineers and production
Where this role can take you
- Technical ownership of a critical production system at studio level
- Evolution toward Staff / Principal DevOps or Platform Lead roles
- Strategic impact on how games are built and shipped
