Senior Client C++ Developer

• for the Core Team to work on key game project functionalities.
• We strive for simplicity, scalability, maintainability, and excellent quality in our solutions.
• Our team's main goal and challenge is to deliver outstanding technical design while ensuring quality, flexibility, and ease of development for game features.
• In this role you will develop our system – its architecture, APIs, contracts, and reusable modules, and as well implement and generalize specific game mechanics, turning successful solutions into new “building blocks” for the entire company.
• Tasks to be solved
• **Creating and supporting core modules**
• Moving code (e.g., map logic, metagameplay) to the core area of responsibility through auditing, refactoring, and separation into modules.
• **Redesign and refactoring**
• Developing universal mechanisms for in-game special offers, promotions, buffs, and effects – allowing feature teams to configure specific cases without having to make core edits.
• Refining the HotReload system (which allows us to seamlessly update configurations and functionality in different environments).
• Designing an "instances" system (separate locations/scenes/subsystems) with special game rules.
• **Accelerating the integration of new mechanics**
• Identifying typical scenarios and migrating repetitive code into reusable core components.
• Creating a convenient API and clear documentation (guides, FAQs, and examples).
• **Maintaining core code quality**
• Decomposition, reviewing code, and refactoring large fragments without the need for huge disruptive changes.
• To succeed, you will need
• 6+ years of commercial development, including 4+ years in C++ client-side.
• Experience with 2D/3D game engines (e.g., Cocos2d-x, Unity, or their equivalents).
• Experience in creating or supporting complex game projects (strategy, MMORPG, and/or open world) or large mobile titles with continuous server sync.
• Experience developing reusable client-side logic / shared modules.
• The ability to navigate engine architecture and enhance/expand basic modules as needed.
• Experience in developing core libraries or tools for developer teams (internal framework, plugins, and scripts).
• Knowledge of patterns and design principles (SOLID, GOF, KISS, and YAGNI) and the ability to properly decompose tasks and extract reusable components.
• The ability to work with profilers, templates, memory, and multithreading in practice.
• An understanding of key components (render, layers/scenes, animations/timelines, and Prefab).
• Performance optimization: profiling, render tracing, and memory handling.
• The ability to write testable code (unit tests, integration tests, and automation tests).
• A basic understanding of build pipelines (iOS/Android) and mobile app lifecycles.
• The following would be to your advantage
• Experience in writing or running performance tests (load and stress tests).
• Experience in developing with C# (2–3 years). The ability to read others' code and modify modules in Unity as needed.
• Extensive knowledge of game development tools and libraries (Spine/DragonBones, UI solutions, analytics SDK, etc.).
• Experience with software architectures: MVC, MVP, MVVM, ECS.
