Work Location: Rushdown Studios is based in Saratoga Springs, NY and we have a strong preference for local candidates willing to work from our office on a hybrid basis (i.e., Tuesday-Thursday) or fully remote candidates in the Eastern United States. However, we're always open to expanding our list of remote-eligible states for the right candidate, as well. Responsibilities - Integrate backend services with the game client using C++. - Develop a wide variety of features for games utilizing Unreal Engine. - Ensure backend APIs are used efficiently and data is cached properly in the client. - Build tools that enable designers to easily work with and configure online systems. - Estimate and prioritize a backlog of existing features, bugs, and tech debt. - Solve crashes and other problems on both PC and console. - Partner with designers to iterate on features and optimize for a smoother player experience. - Collaborate with external programmers to integrate new features for multiplayer games and ensure their features run as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Nice-to-Haves - Experience with additional game engines, including Unity or bespoke game engines. - Experience developing SDKs or plugins to be used by other developers you may not be working with directly. - Background developing games for consoles and integrating with console SDKs.
