Core Engine Programmer

We are an independent development studio based in Amsterdam focused on creating sandbox worlds on a massive scale.

Our team of game developers and researchers are using machine learning and other modern technologies to push the envelope of what is possible with open worlds in gaming. Our goal is to build deep, systemic playgrounds hundreds of kilometers wide and populated by thousands of players.

We believe that the longstanding dream of a massive, immersive world where players are free to do whatever they want is closer than ever before.

• Назва проекту(ів): Artemis, MELBA Engine

На які завдання (обов'язки)?

As an experienced programmer you will be working on research and development, defining, extending and maintaining processes for our in-house next-generation engine with a focus on GPGPU, Data Oriented Design and Machine Learning.

PlayerUnknown Productions places a strong emphasis on a breath-first development approach in all fields, using data-driven development, ECS and machine learning to create the scalable systems capable of powering massive sandbox worlds. We believe in iterative development, building for flexibility and adaptability from the ground up.  

Responsibilities include:

• Collaborating with peers to design software, identify problems and determine best solutions by evaluating existing ones or implementing custom solutions.  

• Adopting a breath-first development approach: designing for scalability without refactoring and implementing iterative development for flexible, straightforward design rather than purpose-built solutions.  

• Developing with Data-Oriented design opposed to Object-Oriented.   

• Designing software for scalability.  

• Producing platform independent code.  

• Using and expanding the proprietary ECS-based engine. 

• Implement systems for a highly data-driven, simulation-based, open-world, sandbox project.

Якого професіонала шукаємо?

• Highly motivated to work with new and emerging technologies. 

• Extensive professional programming experience (3-6 years).  

• Advanced proficiency in C/C++.  

• Understanding software design and architecture skills (DOD, ECS).  

• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills.  

• Solid understanding of mathematics.  

• Experience integrating / adapting 3rd party technologies.  

• Excellent communication skills in verbal and written English.
