Job Title: Artist Job Category: Software Development Product: Games Date Posted: 12/04/2008 Job Code: 250005 Location: WA - Redmond Travel Required: Would you like to work on a next-generation project, built from the ground up in MGS / SpawnPoint Studios? We have a very strong team, currently responsible for Gears of War 2, starting a new project in a start-up like environment. This is a rare opportunity to work on a team of game industry experts tackling a new challenge. We're looking for strong developers with a great track record, people who can learn quickly and come up to speed with the latest generation technologies such as the Unreal Engine or CryEngine. Direct experience with these is not required, but being able to ramp up quickly is. This position requires 4+ years of development experience, including shipping at least one product. Candidates with game experience are preferred. Experience with C/C++ and multithreaded code is essential, and exposure to console development or common gaming solutions strongly preferred. A BS or MS in computer science or related discipline is preferred. We're building a new team, so we're looking for a wide array of specialties: strong math, physics, AI or networking backgrounds are all welcome. The ideal candidate will be highly flexible and self-motivated, with strong communication skills and a passion for games, able to work effectively with other disciplines and external development partners.
