    • Encouraging coding and development practices within the team that lead to an exemplary console performance and experience  

WHAT YOU’LL BRING

    • Experience shipping multiple titles on Xbox and PlayStation consoles  
    • Good programming skills using C++ and C# in a large codebase 
    • Experience with unmanaged/managed code inter-operation 
    • Ability to quickly grasp new code and understand the intent of the original author  
    • Proactive and able to solve issues independently  
    • Passionate about sharing knowledge and communicating issues effectively to other members of the team  
    • Able to give and receive constructive feedback  
    • Keeping up to date with new game technologies. 
What we can offer you
You'll work directly with a friendly and experienced team that is striving to push the envelope in the tactical RPG space by creating challenging new worlds with compelling cinematic narratives.
