  • Extensive knowledge of modern C++
  • Experience and a strong drive in helping to design gameplay and its underlying systems and implementing quality-focused technical solutions to make those systems work
  • Solid knowledge of engineering practices
  • The ability to work with large cross-platform codebases and legacy code
