The Role

Working as part of the Central Tech Team you will contribute to multiple projects in development at Supermassive Games, enabling teams to create and deliver games across all consoles and PC platforms. Your responsibilities will include:

• Be innovative when opportunities arise, be conservative when sensible
• Take responsibility for your own work and contribute to an environment where others feel enabled to do the same

Requirements

Skills and Experience:

• CI/CD build systems, e.g., TeamCity (Kotlin), Jenkins (JobDSL/Groovy), Buildkite - previous experience with build systems is essential

• Python – Python can be picked up on the job by the right person, but prior knowledge would put you ahead
• AAA game development, e.g., Unreal or Unity - previous experience working with build systems for modern AAA games engines is an advantage.

We'd be especially impressed by:

• PowerShell – PowerShell is in use in some of our system, so having a good understanding would help with the role
