Senior Tools Programmer

• Develop and ship features in art pipeline tools used by artists across our game teams
• Contribute to architecture and technical decisions on subsystems you build, from data models and file formats to UI and rendering
• Work directly with artists to understand their workflow pain, and turn it into tools that make their day shorter and their work better
• Ship cross-platform on Windows and macOS, and make the experience feel native and solid on both
• Collaborate with engine and game teams on the pipeline boundary

• Strong professional experience with C++ in production environments
• Proven experience building desktop user interface, and a clear sense of how to structure a non-trivial user interface
• Experience shipping cross-platform desktop software on Windows and macOS, and you know where the pain points are
• Solid understanding of graphics fundamentals: coordinate systems, transforms, blending, rendering pipelines, animation
• Experience working in a codebase that others depend on: clean APIs, good documentation hygiene, code review discipline
• AI development tools (Copilot, Cursor, Claude, etc.) are part of your daily workflow
• Ability to communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical people
• Driven, focused, and willing to see projects through delivery
• A genuine desire to help others produce their best work

• Understanding of art pipelines and the day-to-day processes artists work through: what gets exported, where things break, what slows people down
• A background or hands-on experience in art, animation, or another creative discipline
• Background in animation systems: keyframing, interpolation, curve editors, timelines
• Prior experience building creative or content-creation tools, not just end-user applications
• Familiarity with immediate-mode UI frameworks (e.g. Dear ImGui) for in-engine tooling, debug overlays, and rapid prototyping
• Game engine or 3D engine development experience
