Job Description

We are looking for a UE Developer, specialising in Unreal Engine, to work with us on the delivery of key projects aiming to push the engine to the limit within the architectural space.

Web & Full-Stack Development (Desirable)

• API Architecture & Integrations: Connect real-time engine applications to external data services by designing, building, and maintaining RESTful or GraphQL APIs and backend integrations (utilising web fundamentals like JavaScript/Node.js).
• Full-Stack Application Delivery: Architect and deploy end-to-end web applications incorporating responsive React frontends, robust SQL database schemas, and industry-standard security protocols (authentication, encryption, CORS).

Technical Project Management & Delivery

• Agile Execution: Proven track record leading sprint planning, task allocation, issue triage, and milestone delivery using Jira and structured tracking frameworks.
• Version Control: Experience using Perforce for robust pipeline and asset management.
