Role Description As we push toward the finish line, we need a seasoned Senior Platform Programmer to act as our console guardian. Your primary mission is to maintain and test our console builds, ensuring they don’t just run, but thrive on next-gen hardware. You will be the point person for identifying platform-specific bottlenecks, upgrading SDKs, and guiding our QA team through the rigorous certification process. Beyond maintenance, you’ll empower the rest of the studio by providing the tools and optimizations necessary to meet strict shipping requirements.

Success Criteria (What are we expecting from this person in the next months) - Certification Readiness: Successfully guide the project through the Game Pass certification process with minimal friction. - Infrastructure Modernization: Successfully update the project to the latest SDK versions and integrate the console build process into our CI/CD pipeline. - Stability & Testing: Achieve a significant reduction in platform-specific crashes and implement a suite of console-specific automated tests. Qualifications - Experience with console architecture and development. - Proficient in troubleshooting and optimizing game builds. - Strong understanding of certification processes for Xbox/PS5. Requirements - Availability: ASAP (if available later, do not hesitate to apply!) - Location: Full remote possible (Europe only) Benefits - Competitive packages and tailored benefits through our partnership with Deel. - Seamless onboarding for international team members. Company Description We partner with Deel to facilitate hiring globally, ensuring compliance with local labor laws and providing tailored benefits for each country. This collaboration allows us to offer competitive packages and seamless onboarding for our international team members, enhancing their employment experience no matter where they are located.
