Senior Engine Integration Engineer

Were looking for engineers eager to help us invent how different real-time 3D runtimes communicate and render under real-world constraints. Youll work at the intersection of core engine tech high-performance networking distributed systems and graphics. This is your opportunity to build the fundamental infrastructure for the next generation of interconnected game and 3D ecosystems.

Youre our in-house expert for the other side. Were not porting a gamewere integrating engines themselves.

• Debug complex cross-engine interactions: crashes race conditions resource contention and feature impedance mismatches.

What were looking for

• Unreal Mastery: Extensive knowledge of Unreal source code resource management UObject lifecycle and Slate UI
