Our Gameplay Programmers are versatile generalists who focus on game strategy and the "feel" of a game. However, they will inevitably be involved with the more specialized areas of the game's development, such as graphics and sound. Gameplay programmers may implement strategy tables, tweak input code, or adjust other factors that alter the game. You will report to the Senior Engineer and work with your peers to deliver gameplay features envisioned by producers and designers.

Your Responsibilities:

• Bring the vision of the artists and designers to life.
• Design and write the code that runs and controls the game, incorporating and adapting existing libraries and writing custom code.
• Prototype new mechanics to prove designs and refine mechanics.
• Design technical designs for Gameplay systems.
• Develop tools and workflows to produce new game features.
• Work with a proprietary engine to develop shareable code and interface correctly with the engine.
