Job Description

Principal Game Programmer / Technical Director | EU Remote working | €90k-130k + excellent bonuses and profit share

  • Fully remote working from within the European Union

We're partnering with an ambitious independent game studio developing a next-generation, ultra-realistic multiplayer first-person shooter in Unreal Engine 5.

This is an opportunity to join a small, highly experienced engineering team where you'll have genuine ownership over the technical direction of a brand-new IP. Rather than maintaining legacy systems, you'll help define the architecture, networking and core gameplay technology that will underpin the project for years to come.
