Lead Developer, Tools

Full-time

2k

 


What We Need


A specialist Lead Developer who extends Unreal Engine's Gauntlet framework and makes sure a green result actually means the build is good. You're deeply fluent in Unreal Engine internals and plugin architecture, leading a small team from the front, coding alongside them, not reviewing from a distance.

What You'll Do



  • Deliver high quality automation features with a small team of engineers behind you.

  • Extend Unreal's Gauntlet framework: build the harnesses, telemetry, and reporting.

  • Build test infrastructure that works: input simulation, AI-driven test agents, performance telemetry at scale.

  • Turn technical complexity into clarity for whoever needs to act on it, technical or not.

  • Partner with TDs and leads across studios to define the future of test automation.

  • Stay ahead of leadership asks: progress, risks, tradeoffs.

  • Own the platform's long-term health. Pay down technical debt proactively.

What Will Make You A Great Fit


Required Skills


  • Deep expertise in Unreal Engine and C++, with 5+ years of hands-on experience across engine versions.

  • Direct experience with Unreal's Gauntlet automation framework, Unreal's Functional Testing framework, or a comparable engine-level test automation system.

  • Proven experience leading a small engineering team, including code review, mentoring engineers as they ramp up on deep engine-level systems, and delivering value against a roadmap.

  • Strong communication of complex technical solutions across audiences.

  • Proactive leadership and reporting of engineering progress, risks, and tradeoffs.

  • Experience building telemetry, instrumentation, or reporting systems for software.

  • Experience navigating a partner studio's own priorities and roadmap alongside 2K's, balancing both without either side losing confidence.

Bonus Points


  • Experience with reinforcement-learning-driven or AI-based test agents (e.g., Unreal's Learning Agents).

  • Experience scaling a testing framework across multiple concurrent game projects.

  • Experience working embedded within or alongside an external studio/partner team.

  • Familiarity with version control strategy across Git/Perforce in a multi-team environment.

  • Contributions to or deep familiarity with Unreal Engine's own automation/testing source.

  • Transformer la complexité technique en clarté pour quiconque doit agir en conséquence, technique ou non.

  • Collaborer avec les directeurs techniques et les responsables des différents studios pour définir l'avenir de l'automatisation des tests.

  • Anticiper les demandes de la direction : avancement, risques, compromis.

  • Assurer la santé à long terme de la plateforme. Réduire la dette technique de façon proactive.

Ce qui fera de vous la personne idéale


Compétences requises


  • Expertise approfondie d'Unreal Engine et de C++, avec 5 ans ou plus d'expérience pratique à travers plusieurs versions du moteur.

  • Expérience directe avec le cadre d'automatisation Gauntlet d'Unreal, le cadre de test fonctionnel d'Unreal, ou un système d'automatisation de tests comparable au niveau du moteur.

  • Expérience éprouvée à la tête d'une petite équipe d'ingénierie, incluant la révision de code, le mentorat de développeurs en cours d'apprentissage de systèmes complexes au niveau du moteur, et la livraison de valeur selon une feuille de route.

  • Communication claire de solutions techniques complexes auprès de publics variés.

  • Leadership proactif, avec un suivi rigoureux de l'avancement, des risques et des compromis techniques.

  • Expérience dans la création de systèmes de télémétrie, d'instrumentation ou de rapport pour des logiciels.

  • Expérience à naviguer les priorités et la feuille de route propres à un studio partenaire aux côtés de celles de 2K, en maintenant la confiance des deux côtés.

Atouts supplémentaires


  • Expérience avec des agents de test pilotés par apprentissage par renforcement ou par IA (par exemple, Learning Agents d'Unreal).

  • Expérience dans la mise à l'échelle d'un cadre de test sur plusieurs projets de jeux concurrents.

  • Expérience de travail intégré au sein ou aux côtés d'une équipe de studio partenaire externe.

  • Familiarité avec les stratégies de contrôle de version Git/Perforce dans un environnement multi-équipes.

  • Contributions au code source d'automatisation ou de test d'Unreal Engine, ou grande familiarité avec celui-ci.
