Leverage and extend the Frostbite audio toolset to enhance audio authoring workflows and developer efficiency.

Your Qualifications

3+ years of professional software or game development experience, preferably within large, multiplatform codebases.
Strong proficiency in C++ with a solid foundation in object-oriented design, data structures, and modern software engineering best practices.
Experience developing, maintaining, and debugging production-level software or game engine systems.
Background in developing audio technology or real-time audio systems with an interest in audio technology and creating high-quality interactive audio experiences.
Experience in utilizing AI-assisted development tools (e.g. coding agents) to rapid prototype, accelerate execution and automate workflows, with the ability to critically review and validate AI-generated code.
Understanding of memory management, multithreading, and runtime optimization.
Strong debugging and problem-solving skills.
Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to partner effectively across both technical and non-technical disciplines.
