Job Description

Lead Engineer

Devoted Studios

• Write, review, and own C++ code on the engagement — Lead Engineer is not a title that means you stop coding • Build and maintain core gameplay, engine, or systems components as required by the engagement • Unblock engineers on the team when they are stuck — architecture calls, engine deep-dives, debugging • Performance profiling and optimization across target platforms (console, PC, or mobile as required) • Lead and mentor engineers on the project team — grow their craft, review their work, catch drift early • Run engineering rituals: sprint planning, technical reviews, code reviews • Escalate resourcing or capability gaps to production before they affect delivery • Provide honest engineering assessments to support hiring and team growth • Be the technical voice in client conversations — represent engineering with clarity, not jargon • Partner with the Senior Game Producer to keep technical scope in sync with the schedule • Surface trade-off decisions early: 'here is the risk, here are the options, here is my recommendation' • Maintain the client's confidence that Devoted's engineering bar is where it needs to be

Job Requirements

  • 7+ years of software engineering experience with at least 4 years in AAA or mid-tier game development
  • 2+ years as a Lead Engineer, Principal Engineer, or equivalent — with real ownership of technical direction, not just senior IC with a bigger title
  • At least 2 shipped commercial titles as a lead or senior contributor — on PC, console, or both
  • Deep Unreal Engine 5 expertise: C++ at an architectural level, not just usage; Blueprint proficiency; engine subsystem familiarity (rendering, physics, gameplay framework, GAS a strong plus)
  • Strong C++ fundamentals — systems design, memory management, performance reasoning
  • Experience leading small engineering teams and growing engineers' craft
  • Comfort in client-facing environments — can hold a technical conversation with a client engineering lead without translation
  • Remote-first discipline: async communication, documentation habits, strong written English
  • Preferred**
  • Experience in a co-development or external development studio environment
  • Multi-platform development experience: console certification, platform compliance (PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo)
  • Online multiplayer systems, dedicated server architecture, or live-service game experience

Benefits

  • This would he a full-time employment role with standard industry benefits in Canada
