Decima pushes modern hardware to its limits, delivering best-in-class graphics and performance. It also empowers teams with artist- and designer-friendly workflows, robust production planning tools, and advanced debuggers for programmers.

We believe that the tools a studio uses are just as important as the games they create—and with Decima, we’re setting the stage for innovation and creativity.

The Infrastructure Team

Over the years, our programmers have created a very capable engine and a complete set of tools to form a solid basis for our games. With these games growing in complexity and number, and an ever-growing number of platforms to support, we require help developing the engine and tools further.

  • You enjoy working in an innovative, highly dynamic game development environment.

What you will do

  • Develop new tools and maintain the existing systems that make up the development infrastructure at Guerrilla.
  • Create innovative new ways to use our build farm and other distributed processes, improving our continuous integration builds and the tools that support them.
  • Improve our C++ toolchains (Clang and Visual Studio), implement static analysis tools, improve our distributed build tools and organize our code base and documentation.
  • Design and implement new version control system tools so code and content can be more easily shared, both within the team and between the team and outside partners.

Plusses

  • You have experience with continuous integration or automated testing;
  • You have experience with client-server programming and distributed processes;
  • You have past experience with large, scalable systems
  • You have past experience in a similar position in the video games industry.

About The Company

As one of Europe's leading game development studios, Guerrilla has continually pushed the boundaries of technical and artistic excellence since its inception in 2003. Today, the studio employs 400 professionals from 25 different nationalities. Guerrilla’s state-of-the-art offices are located in the cultural and historical heart of Amsterdam, The Netherlands — a great place to work and play.


Guerrilla was founded as the result of a merger between three smaller Dutch studios: Lost Boys Games, Orange Games and Digital Infinity. In 2005, it was acquired by Sony Interactive Entertainment after the release of Killzone on PlayStation 2. In the decade that followed, Guerrilla expanded Killzone into a successful franchise with a handheld spin-off and three sequels.


Guerrilla's next title, released for PlayStation 4 in 2017 and for PC in 2020, is the critically and popularly acclaimed open world action-RPG Horizon Zero Dawn. The studio released its sequel Horizon Forbidden West in February 2022, with the Burning Shores expansion in 2023. This year, Guerrilla also released the PSVR2 title, Horizon Call of the Mountain.
