Tech Stack

Description

You will define the long-term technical roadmap for the core technology group, drive engineering excellence across senior teams, and mentor Principal Engineers and Tech Leads. You'll prototype foundational systems, perform high-level code reviews, and solve high-risk architectural challenges to ensure scalable and maintainable systems.

Requirements

• 10+ years in software engineering, with 5+ years in a Principal or Architect role (AAA gaming or high-scale systems preferred)
• Expert-level C++
• Unreal Engine architecture expertise
• High-performance computing knowledge
• Success in shipping multiple complex products with stable, maintainable architectures
• Ability to translate complex technical concepts for both engineers and executive leadership
• Balanced approach to solving immediate production needs while maintaining long-term architectural health
• Passion for replacing legacy workflows with scalable, R&D-driven solutions

Responsibilities

• Define Architectural Strategy: Set the long-term technical roadmap, engineering standards, and core technology adoption
• Drive Technical Governance: Act as the final authority on critical design decisions, establish quality gates, and manage performance budgets
• Lead Hands-On Innovation: Prototype foundational systems, perform high-level code reviews, and solve high-risk architectural challenges
• Mentor Senior Talent: Coach Principal Engineers and Tech Leads to foster a culture of technical rigor and continuous improvement
• Risk Management: Identify and mitigate technical debt, performance bottlenecks, and architectural risks across the development lifecycle
• Cross-Disciplinary Partnership: Align technical architecture with creative, production, and business objectives
