    Join us on our mission to bring players together in an inviting, immersive world where they can make their mark. Hytale empowers creative expression across a spectrum of experiences including sandbox adventure, social play, minigames, and creativity using a suite of powerful and accessible tools.

    As a Gameplay Engineering Manager , you will support your team through a combination of coaching, direction-setting, career management and some hands-on engineering.

    • Player Focused: You know as a player what makes a great player experience. And you know as an engineer how to build it
    • Adaptable: You are comfortable with switching gears between optimization, break/fix, and development and understand the need for rapid re-prioritization.
    • Quality Aware: You know and care how your team's code affects cost, reliability and maintainability.

    Some of your role:

    • Manage a team of 4-6 engineers through a combination of coaching, mentoring, direction-setting, code reviews, and hands-on engineering
    • Performance management including writing and delivering reviews
    • Work closely with Product Owners and Project Managers to prioritize, break down, and select work for your team
    • Work closely with design and creative stakeholders to transform their feature requests into actionable plans.
    • Architect, plan, review, and prototype technical designs with your team and present them to peers.
    • 6+ years of professional programming experience in systems languages (C++)
    • 6+ years working on gameplay code in a custom or off-the-shelf engine.
    • 2+ years as a manager or in a similar leadership role
    • Strong understanding of iterative game development and system engineering.
    • Experience player / working on Voxel Games / Engines
    • Experience working with Agile delivery
    • Experience growing a team through hiring & performance management
    • Experience managing expectations of stakeholders within large organizations

    We can offer:

    • Annual Performance Bonus (APB)
    • Quality of Life increases
    • Christmas closure
    • A chance to work on a new game project with an extremely motivated team
    • Opportunities to learn and grow personally and professionally

We recognize the value of diversity in every sense and actively encourage candidates from diverse backgrounds to apply.
