  • Reduce technical load on other engineers by owning visual tech systems
Requirements
  • Proven experience working as a graphics or rendering engineer (especially in games)
  • Strong knowledge of Unreal Engine rendering pipeline (UE5 preferred)
  • Familiarity with performance profiling tools (Render Doc, Unreal Insights, etc.)
  • Solid understanding of graphics APIs (Direct

    X, Vulkan, or similar)
  • Comfortable working in a collaborative, fast-paced team environment.
Bonus Skills
  • Experience with LOD systems, culling, and instancing
  • Familiarity with Niagara, dynamic lighting, or atmospherics in UE
  • Experience with HLSL/GLSL shader development
  • Prior shipped titles or indie projects a plus
Ideal Candidate
  • A highly technical problem-solver who can push visual fidelity without sacrificing frame rate
  • Someone who’s ready to jump in, own systems, and help us deliver a polished player experience.
  • How to Apply
    • Send your resume and portfolio (if applicable).
    • The interview process may include a short technical screening and/or performance optimization task.
