Unreal Engine Programmer

O.A.K Studio is looking for a seasoned Unreal Engine programmer with a solid C++ foundation to help build, optimize, and ship high‑quality game features. If you’ve shipped titles or maintain a strong playable portfolio—and you’re comfortable integrating with cloud backends (Azure/AWS)—we’d love to talk.

What you’ll do

• Design, implement, and optimize gameplay and systems code in C++ within Unreal Engine (UE4/UE5).
• Collaborate with designers, artists, and producers to deliver performant, maintainable features.
• Integrate online/backend services (e.g., authentication, leaderboards, telemetry, cloud saves) using Azure/AWS and REST/WebSocket APIs.
• Profile and optimize CPU/GPU performance, memory usage, and load times.
• Write clean, documented code and contribute to code reviews and technical planning.

Must‑have

• 4+ years professional experience with Unreal Engine (UE4/UE5) and modern C++.
• Strong understanding of Unreal subsystems (Actors/Components, Gameplay Framework, Replication, Blueprints/C++ interop).
• Proven track record: shipped at least one game or compelling portfolio with playable builds.
• Cloud/backend familiarity: Azure and/or AWS (e.g., Functions/Lambda, App Services/EC2, storage, identity).
• Proficiency with source control (Git) and collaborative workflows.

Nice to have

• Experience with multiplayer/online features (Unreal Online Subsystem, dedicated servers, session management).
• Exposure to PlayFab, GameLift, or similar services.
• CI/CD familiarity (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, etc.).
• Cross‑platform deployment (PC/console/mobile).

Compensation & perks

• ₹8–10 LPA based on experience and portfolio impact.
• Fully remote with flexible work arrangements.
• Opportunity to own systems end‑to‑end and influence technical direction.
