Graphics Programmer

We’re preparing for Early Access and looking for a Graphics Programmer to help optimize our visuals and unlock higher-fidelity features without compromising performance.

This is a technical role focused on rendering, optimization, and performance. You’ll work directly with engineers and artists to improve frame rates, support better lighting and atmospherics, and enable higher-quality visual content.

Responsibilities

• Optimize the rendering pipeline and performance across different platforms
• Profile and debug graphics bottlenecks (CPU & GPU)
• Collaborate with 3D artists, technical artists, and engineers to support higher-quality visuals
• Help implement lighting, atmospheric effects, and visual polish that enhance immersion
• Unlock visual features (e.g. post-processing, shader effects) without compromising performance
• Reduce technical load on other engineers by owning visual tech systems

Requirements

• Proven experience working as a graphics or rendering engineer (especially in games)
• Strong knowledge of Unreal Engine rendering pipeline (UE5 preferred)
• Familiarity with performance profiling tools (RenderDoc, Unreal Insights, etc.)
• Solid understanding of graphics APIs (DirectX, Vulkan, or similar)
• Comfortable working in a collaborative, fast-paced team environment.

Bonus Skills

• Experience with LOD systems, culling, and instancing
• Familiarity with Niagara, dynamic lighting, or atmospherics in UE
• Experience with HLSL/GLSL shader development
• Prior shipped titles or indie projects a plus

Ideal Candidate

• A highly technical problem-solver who can push visual fidelity without sacrificing frame rate
• Someone who’s ready to jump in, own systems, and help us deliver a polished player experience.
• How to Apply
• Send your resume and portfolio (if applicable).
• The interview process may include a short technical screening and/or performance optimization task.
