« Pour visualiser la description de poste en français, veuillez sélectionner le français dans le menu déroulant au haut de la page. »At EA, we believe games are powerful because they bring together multiple ways people engage: play, watch, create, and connect. And increasingly, the biggest entertainment platforms aren't just places to consume content — they're places where communities build.

Creator-made content is already a proven part of EA's history — from community creation tools in Battlefield to The Gallery in The Sims 4. We believe new creative technologies and tools will expand how players engage with and contribute to our experiences, supported by thoughtful product design, safety systems, and global reach. Our focus is on enabling more players to participate in creative expression by making creation easier, safer, and more rewarding.

As a Senior Software Developer, you will collaborate with product leaders, gameplay designers, developers, and researchers to bring ideas to life. You will develop and architect new gameplay experiences and refine existing ones. You will also impact and shape gameplay requirements through play tests, feedback sessions, and other hands-on reviews. Your ownership will extend beyond technical planning and implementation, delving into the design of how a feature can best impact players' gaming journeys.

This is a hybrid role, onsite three days a week, in Redwood City, Montreal, or Vancouver.

You will report to the Technical Director.

Responsibilities:

You will build and maintain performant, stable, and engaging gameplay features.

You will align feature implementations with core engine architecture and technical strategy.

You will refine user journey requirements with strong engineering and gameplay guidance.

You will implement telemetry and analytics integrations for feature visibility and tracking.

You will contribute to engine, content, agentic, and research initiatives to build scalable solutions.

You will identify gameplay technical risks, blockers, and architecture pitfalls, providing clear mitigation plans.

You will create wireframes and automated test suites for gameplay systems.

Qualifications:

8+ years of professional software development experience, including experience with AAA game engines (e.g., Frostbite, Unity, Unreal, Godot, or proprietary)

Experience with large C++ codebases

Experience implementing or designing gameplay features

Proficiency across one or multiple gameplay domains (e.g., character, camera, controls, UI, audio, lighting, animation, shaders, VFX, ray casting, splines, physics fundamentals)
Experience navigating unfamiliar areas of a large codebase and becoming productive quickly in tools, pipeline, or runtime systems

Experience collaborating with others to refine product vision research goals into production-ready engine features
