    • Mentor less experienced people, share knowledge and best practices with the team.

    • A deep contemporary knowledge of scalable online services, client/server and peer to peer architectures, data replication and cloud, PC, and console platform services and APIs

    • Prior console development experience
    • Leveraging tools and systems within Unreal to deliver network functionality
