*Software Design Engineer* * Location: REDMOND, WA* * Duration: 302 days* * Job Description: * Contributes to the development of a new Xbox 360 Game. Will be working with Gameplay group to develop game features, UI screens, and Xbox LIVE features for the game. Designs and develops complex systems on the UnReal 3 game engine. They will be working on a Natal title. We anticipate that the majority of their time will be spent supporting the external teams (fielding questions about the technology) and integrating changes in source control. There may be some feature work that they can do if the first two requirements leave time.
As mentioned above, they will be working directly with the external development team, dealing with support issues and knowledge sharing from other studios. They also need to frequently integrate changes from the internal team as well as the external team in source control. If additional time is available, they can help the external teams by working on some features of the game. What created need: We need internal developers who can interface with the external teams. So far, we only have one internal SDE on the project, and the timeline is tight. The decision was made to open some CSG heads and see if we can get some SDE’s in faster that way. Start/LOA: The sooner they can start, the better. Timeline will be 6-9 months. Extension based on need/performance. Culture: The team is fairly small and very vocal/active. Which comes with working on a Natal project. * Additional Skills: * Experience in the following areas is a plus: - *UI development in games or other applications in C/C++. UI development in Scaleform is ideal. * - Experience in one or more shipping game titles. - Experience in shipping a mini-game based title. * - Xbox or other console experience is a plus. * - Knowledge of C# is a plus. -Source Management (required for 2/4 roles) Also: A qualified candidate is required to have a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience and a thorough knowledge of C/C++ and object oriented programming. A qualified candidate must also have development experience with the Unreal 3 game engine and have experience with Perforce and the management of source code depots. ** *Note: look for someone with C++ and gaming exp.* -- Thanks & Regards, Aмιt Sιиgh, Metapro IT Solutions 10925 Antioch Rd # 101 Overland Park, KS 66210-2119 E-MAIL -- [email protected],[email protected] DIRECT -- 816-600-1278 Web -- www.metaprousa.com
