Tools Engineer (Senior or Lead)

Description

At Bungie, we have a large team of artists and designers creating the content for our games, and they have correspondingly high expectations of the tools they use every day to do this. The Content Tools team is passionate about building high quality, cutting-edge software and workflows for them to create the next great game. This includes world editors, shader graphs, object authoring, and all that’s needed to bring content from a creative person’s head into the game.

You will collaborate closely with teammates from all over the studio to bring ideas to life. From building user interfaces to manipulating 3D meshes to wrangling data formats, this position involves a breadth of technology and feature areas almost unheard of elsewhere in software development.

We’re looking for an awesome, versatile candidate who loves to build things. Our platform is primarily C# on WPF interacting with our game engine in C++, supported by a pile of technologies and patterns such as the Reactive Extensions, MVVM, DirectX, IoC, async/await, and many proprietary bleeding-edge in-house systems. If you’re an expert in any of these buzzwords, great! Regardless, we expect that you are a master of the technologies in your own experience, and that this has prepared you to learn, adapt, and grok what we are doing, and drive us to the next level.
