Company:

Boeing Australia is seeking to recruit 2 x Gameplay Developers for our Commercial Pilot Training division to be based in a hybrid capacity in Brisbane.

We are open for Senior or Mid-level developers.

About the Role:

Recruiting 2 x Senior/Mid level Gameplay Developers to build highfidelity interactive training applications for commercial pilot this role you will apply deep expertise in Unreal Engine 5 and modern softwareengineering practices to design implement and iterate gameplay systems that deliver realistic performant experiences for engineers pilots and analysts. You will serve as the technical bridge between designers artists and simulation engineers providing tools and workflows that enable rapid iteration in a highly regulated safetycritical environment.

Position Responsibilities

• Prototype & R&D: Rapidly prototype interactive features (e.g. instrument panel controls flightdynamics logic fluidsimulation effects) in C/Blueprints; evaluate emerging Unreal Engine tools and thirdparty libraries for aerospace use.
• GameplayEngineering Liaison: Translate aerospace requirements into robust gameplay systems and ensure seamless integration with the simulation pipeline.
• Tool Support & Training: Build and maintain inengine editor extensions custom datadriven configuration panels and debugging utilities; provide technical assistance to designers and engineers across desktop and VR/AR platforms.
• Systems Architecture: Design modular testable gameplay frameworks (input handling state machines AI networking physics) that scale with largescale environments and frequent content updates.
• Workflow Optimization: Identify bottlenecks in code execution asset streaming and simulation loops; implement custom scripts plugins or offtheshelf solutions to improve iteration speed and runtime efficiency.
• Performance & Quality Assurance: Define and enforce coding standards develop automated unit/functional tests integrate CI/CD pipelines for builds and content and conduct profiling/optimization (CPU/GPU memory LOD streaming) to meet realtime constraints on mobile devices highend PCs and headmounted displays.

Basic Qualifications (Required Skills/Experience)
