Job Details

Job Title: Senior Programmer

Type: Full time

Who We Are: Disbelief is a game development studio focusing on contracting and consulting services. We’ve worked with both AAA and independent studios to help their projects ship. Notable projects we’ve worked on include Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands, Minecraft, Borderlands 3, Gears Tactics, Gears 5, and Pacific Drive.

At Disbelief we value work-life balance, and want to create an alternative to the crunch-culture prevalent in game development. We also believe strongly in investing in our talent and our team. Disbelief is a place to puzzle out the solutions to cutting-edge problems in graphics and engine programming, but also a place where people can grow their careers and skill sets as valued members of a stable and close knit team.

Description: Currently, we’re looking for a senior programmer. This opportunity is for a full-time position in Cambridge, MA or Chicago, IL. Senior programmers at Disbelief are leaders and developers in their project. You should be comfortable working independently and with a team to develop, test and integrate software into a larger codebase. A key responsibility is mentoring and guiding fellow programmers to improve.

We believe a diverse team is a stronger team, and we encourage marginalized programmers to apply.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Clearly communicate your work to others
  • Mentor fellow programmers in and out of your team
  • Communicate with clients on team progress and problems as they arise
  • Debug code with precision
  • Estimate your and others work
  • Assess impact of issues on schedule
  • Diagnose and solve performance issues
  • Document your code
  • Study version histories and code documentation to solve present problems
  • Implement features in innovative ways

Skills and Requirements:

  • BA/BS or MS Degree in Computer Science, or equivalent experience
  • Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written
  • 5+ years of experience in writing software in C++
  • 5+ years of game development experience
  • 3+ years of Unreal experience
  • One shipped Unreal engine title
  • Extensive experience with version control with P4, git, or equivalent
  • Experience with multi-threaded systems

Location: Cambridge, MA or Chicago, IL

Relocation Assistance: Available where applicable

Hybrid: Programmers are in the office based on project needs, but can sometimes work from home. Some of our projects require access to physical infrastructure.

Visa Sponsorship: No. Disbelief does not offer visa sponsorship at the current time.

We are an E-Verify employer.

Technologies: Most of our work is C++ of varying standards with a sprinkling of other languages as needed for tooling. We do a lot of graphics programming work, using shader languages and platform graphics APIs. Since we often are debugging the lower levels of systems, being able to read x64 or ARM assembly is useful. Primarily we work with Unreal Engine, but we also work with custom game engines. Our work uses rendering, physics, audio, VR, AR, and other APIs frequently. Our primary platforms are PC, Xbox consoles, Playstation consoles, Switch, and VR/AR devices.

Salary: This position has a salary range of $117,000 - $141,000. When making a job offer there are many factors that are taken into consideration at Disbelief. This includes, but is not limited to, experience and skills, comparable jobs in the industry/geographical area, and relocation benefits. Therefore the upper end of the shared salary range is oftentimes dedicated to those who showcase strong performance in the role.
