Join Unreal Cloud Services, the team behind Lore (Epic's next-generation, open-source version control system built for the future of game development). You'll work at the boundary between editor and cloud, making distributed workflows, collaboration, and version control feel like a natural part of the creator experience.

• Work across editor, networking, storage, revision control, and UX systems to make cloud-backed workflows feel natural to Unreal Engine
• Partner with Product and UX teams to turn product ideas into clear, practical, and polished editor experiences
• Collaborate with backend and infrastructure engineers on features that span the editor and cloud services
• Use modern development practices, including AI-assisted programming, to improve implementation, debugging, and iteration

What we're looking for:

Strong C++ skills and experience working in a large native codebase

Experience building user-facing tools, editor features, and complex interactive workflows

Experience building clients that interact with asynchronous or networked services

Strong understanding of parallelism, networking, latency, and failure handling

Strong eye for user experience and how technical behavior affects creator workflows

Experience working closely with Product, UX, and engineering teams to ship features

Experience with Unreal Engine, another game engine, or comparable tools development

Experience with Rust is a plus
