About Senior Software Engineer

  At Iron Galaxy Studios, our teams support a healthy work-life balance, promote continuous improvement, and champion a diverse people-focused culture. We encourage Engineers from every heritage, lifestyle, or background to apply.

  See why we have been certified by Great Place to Work (https://www.greatplacetowork.com/certified-company/7027205)  and GamesIndustry.biz (https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2021-07-22-best-places-to-work-awards-winner-iron-galaxy) .

  This is a full-time hybrid position in Orlando (FL), Chicago (IL), Nashville (TN), or Austin (TX) with relocation options for out-of-state applicants.

  Iron Galaxy is looking for experienced Senior Engineers to join our engineering team. Senior Engineers at Iron Galaxy work on a wide variety of projects, including creating new games from the ground up, co-developing games with partners, and porting existing games to new platforms. Our projects tend to have shorter development cycles; it’s not uncommon for an engineer to work on more than one project in a year. We’ve found that this helps keep things fresh and provides opportunities to utilize experience gained from previous projects.

  As a Senior Software Engineer, you will be expected to take ownership of significant features and systems, debug difficult problems, and provide guidance and feedback to help your teammates grow. You should be comfortable navigating an unfamiliar codebase. While you may have one or more areas of expertise, you aren’t afraid to venture into other domains. In addition to your technical skills, you should have strong communication skills, and work well with diverse cross-functional teams. Responsibilities vary based on the project, and we will also aim to place you on projects that play to your strengths while also giving you room to grow. Here are some examples of what a Senior Engineer might be expected to do.

  RESPONSIBILITIES

  Provide feedback in code reviews

  Identify performance bottlenecks and possible solutions

  Create a technical design document for a new system

  Review a game design document for a feature and provide feedback

  Implement low-level subsystems for a new platform

  Work with an evaluation team to provide information for a project bid

  Ensure adherence to platform compliance requirements

  DESIRED SKILLS 

  Significant experience at a game studio (any size)

  Deep understanding of C/C++

  Strong debugging skills

  Development experience on at least one game console

  Able to adapt to new codebases and platforms

  Passion for personal development and mentoring others

  If you have not worked in a professional capacity as a software engineer in game development, please describe how your programming skills from your experience will translate to this position in your cover letter.

  ABOUT US: Iron Galaxy is one of the world’s largest independent video game developers with 80+ shipped titles. Our people combine their talents to create amazing ports, epic remasters, and new experiences from the ground up. We partner with the top companies in the gaming industry to co-develop and support AAA game creation at the highest level.

  Iron Galaxy Studios is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We believe that a diverse workforce and an inclusive work environment are essential to making quality games. Our teams actively support equal access to career opportunities for all people regardless of age, race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, disability, veteran status, national origin, and any other characteristic protected by applicable law.
