You will collaborate closely with game designers, artists, and other programmers to translate design intentions into responsive, engaging in-game mechanics.
Daily work includes writing clean, maintainable C++ and Blueprint code, prototyping new features, iterating on gameplay based on playtest feedback, and optimizing performance for a smooth player experience.
You will debug and resolve technical issues, contribute to tooling and workflows that improve team efficiency, and help maintain coding standards and best practices.
This is a full-time, on-site role based in Doha, Qatar.
Qualifications
- Strong proficiency in Gameplay Programming and Game Programming, with experience implementing player controls, AI behaviors, and game systems in Unreal Engine.
- Solid foundation in Programming and Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), including data structures, algorithms, debugging, and writing optimized, maintainable C++ code.
- Understanding of Game Design principles, including moment-to-moment gameplay, pacing, balance, and how to translate design documents into interactive systems.
- Hands-on experience with Unreal Engine (C++ and Blueprints), version control systems (e.g., Git, Perforce), and modern development workflows.
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Game Development, or equivalent practical experience.
- Ability to collaborate in a small, cross-functional team, communicate clearly, and take ownership of features from concept to polish.
- Experience with optimization, profiling, and performance tuning for PC or console titles is highly desirable.
- Previous shipped game experience (indie or commercial) and familiarity with multiplayer or networking systems are a plus.
