Founded in 2023, Small Axe Studios is 2K’s newest stand-alone studio, built to push the boundaries of game development and bring 2K’s next groundbreaking sports franchise to life.

If you’re ready to tackle unique challenges, leave your mark on a brand-new IP, and help shape the future of interactive sports entertainment, we want you on our team!

What We Need

We are looking for a Senior Gameplay Engineer to contribute to the development of new animation features and gameplay mechanics at our new studio.

What You Will Do

Collaborate closely with gameplay engineers / designers to identify and develop new gameplay features
Feature owner of key animation-driven gameplay mechanics, including complex locomotion, physical duels, and intricate foot-to-object interactions
Support requests and features for content creation tools and animation review, helping translate authentic athlete physics, momentum, and sudden changes of direction into interactive systems
Assist engineers in making the best use of existing and new animation features
Keep up to date with the latest industry work and implement these techniques
Write and maintain robust and performant code
Optimize code and debug animation issues as they arise

What Will Make You A Great Fit

Excellent 3D math and linear algebra skills
Solid familiarity and experience with C++
3+ years of proven experience working with animation or gameplay systems
Implementation experience in one or more of the following areas: inverse kinematics techniques, procedural animation techniques, keyframe animation and forward kinematics
Ability to explain technical topics to people of varying levels of expertise
An eye for detail in creating dynamic, authentic, and responsive character animation
A deep love for video games (not just ours!) and a passion for sports culture, tracking everything from tactical team formations to what happens from the opening whistle to the final second of extra time

Beneficial Qualifications

Experience developing and shipping AAA games on Unreal Engine 4 and 5
Master’s/PhD in a related field with a focus on animation related topics
Familiarity with Python and/or C#

The pay range for this position in British Columbia at the start of employment is expected to be between $96,400 and $142,660 per year.
