We are looking for a principal programmer to join the Dead by Daylight systems team. Dead by Daylight (DbD) is a game as a service (GaaS), and the systems team is part of a larger production that includes other programming teams, game design, art, animation, and other disciplines. The systems team works on a wide variety of features that are very diverse in nature but having in common that they form the underlying systems upon which the game is based: game flow, the archives, performance, load times, multiple platforms, consoles, and others. Some features even require coding not only in the game code, but also in the backend code.
To help us achieve our long-term vision with DbD, we are looking for a Principal Generalist Programmer to integrate the team and play a pivotal role in shaping the future of the game by being accountable for the delivery of major system features.
