Game Programmer - Gameplay / AI

As a gameplay / AI programmer at Embark, you will be working on our recently announced game (https://arcraiders.com/), a third-person cooperative action game, alongside some of the most talented people in the games industry.

One of our ambitions is to push the boundaries of traditional gameplay and AI so we cultivate an open minded and creative environment by encouraging experimentation and quick iteration.

We consider automated testing where applicable to always keep our builds playable, tech dept in check and getting more time to focus on game making.

This game is being built in Unreal, using C++, a scripting language called Angelscript and some blueprints.

- Improve low level AI systems aligned with tech roadmap
- Design and develop AI systems together with design

We would love if you have

- A creative and curious mind
- A strong background in C++
- An ambition in pushing the boundaries of "next gen"
- A good grasp of what good gameplay looks and feels like
- A fluent English - our team comes from all over the world
- An interest in computer science and programming as a craf



Additionally one or some of these would be a great bonus

- Professional experience with AI in general
