Senior Rendering Engineer - MPG - Fully remote or EU

MPG is a co-development and full-development studio that partners with the leading video game studios on their custom engines: new rendering features, high performance and graphics systems that scale across AAA games, real-time simulation and XR. You’ll work deep in proprietary codebases on PC, current-gen consoles and Mac, writing low-level engine code against DirectX 12, Vulkan and Metal. No editor scripting, no glue work.

This is frame-time engineering of the kind we delivered on Starfield and other technically demanding projects.

• Demonstrable experience in rendering or engine engineering, shipping rendering systems for AAA, film/VFX, XR or simulation
• Solid experience with modern C++ and confident shader authoring and debugging (HLSL, MSL or GLSL)
• Production experience with one of Metal, DirectX 12, Vulkan or GNM/GNMX and the appetite to pick up others
• Working knowledge of the pipeline: rasterization, compute and an understanding of hardware-accelerated ray tracing
• Familiarity with modern techniques: P , GI, ambient occlusion, volumetrics and post-processing (AA, HDR, tone mapping, motion blur)
• Comfortable dropping into unfamiliar codebases and making sound technical decisions
• Solid applied 3D maths, plus technical writing other engineers actually want to read

• Practical experience with mesh shading pipelines (DX12, Vulkan, Metal)
• Familiarity with modern hardware variations, including console and Apple Silicon unified memory architectures
• Exposure to ray tracing or compute-driven rendering
• Unreal Engine source modifications

• Turn the art team’s vision into shippable, scalable rendering technology
• Build and improve high-performance rendering features across PC, console and Mac
• Profile and resolve GPU/CPU bottlenecks: occupancy, tile memory pressure, indirect dispatch overhead, bandwidth
• Work with modern pipeline techniques: GPU-driven culling, indirect command buffers and bindless architectures
• Contribute to GPU memory management built on modern API features and memory heaps
• Extend major engines (including Unreal source) and custom C++ architectures

• Flexible working:
  Remote-friendly long before it was the norm, with core hours that support both great work and real life.
• Support & wellbeing:
  Mental health first-aiders, therapy and coaching via Myndup, plus private medical insurance to help you stay healthy and supported.
• Pension & life cover: A strong pension plan and life insurance to support your future and protect your family.
• Time for you:
  Minimum 25 days’ holiday, a paid winter break, and 3 volunteering days each year to give back to causes you care about.
• Parental leave:
  Family-first policies that support parents and caregivers with flexibility and balance.
• Levelling up:
  Annual L&D budget, expert talks, game jams, and mentoring opportunities to help you grow your skills and career.
