Job description

Unbroken Studios are looking for a Technical Director/Lead Online Engineer to work alongside 20 engineers with experience working on some of the largest AAA titles such as Battlefield, Call of Duty, God of War, and the Arkham Series!

In this role, you will be responsible for developing their networked online and backend components, optimising to meet performance and bandwidth requirements, advising UI and content teams, and evangelizing good online processes.

Unbroken Studios is a Los Angeles-based team, made up of passionate video game developers with an “unbroken” passion for game development, having banded together through the highs and lows of this industry. 

The skills and experience you’ll bring to the role…
  • Advanced understanding of C/C++
  • Advanced understanding of game technology and networking principles
  • Broad range of knowledge and experience with the full network stack from low-level UDP through to simple REST services
  • Incorporating third-party systems to fulfil game requirements
  • Willingness to contribute to all network layers on both server and client, not just hand off at the transport layer
  • Experience in responsibility for the online development of one AAA game
  • Unreal Engine 3 or 4 experience is a bonus
Perks and benefits include…
  • Dental and vision plan
  • Comprehensive medical plan
  • Life Insurance
  • Free bike rentals
  • Training and development
The studio has a super close-knit team, so being social is embedded into their identity as a studio! They have monthly family BBQs, weekly film nights, and annual studio parties, and with the nearby bars & restaurants, they make sure there are plenty of opportunities to hang out as a team!
