🧭 Part of a new localisation engineering function, built from scratch

Most localisation engineers slot into a pipeline someone else built. This role builds it.

One of the biggest names in global gaming is done with that. They’re standing up a dedicated Arabic-first localisation capability from the ground up, and they need the engineer to build it.
