Welcome to Warner Bros. Discovery… the stuff dreams are made of. Who We Are… When we say, “the stuff dreams are made of,” we’re not just referring to the world of wizards, dragons and superheroes, or even to the wonders of Planet Earth.

Apply strong Unreal Engine expertise (Blueprint/C++ integration, data assets, gameplay tags, GAS, animation/gameplay integration) and experience with Sequencer, Smart Objects, and state machines. Prototype quickly and evolve successful ideas into production-ready content. Support production planning, backlog reviews, estimation, and risk management. Promote best engineering practices for performance, stability, and maintainability. Mentor and develop team members, fostering collaboration and ownership. Debug and resolve complex gameplay/content issues across C++, Blueprint, and data-driven systems. Work with Gameplay Systems to adopt and extend core systems for content use. ​ Technical Requirements Experience leading, supporting and mentoring programmers, including planning and delivery. Advanced C++ skills and strong Unreal Engine experience. Proven ability to design and architect gameplay features for complex games. Understanding of major gaming platforms and experience shipping at least one AAA title (or equivalent). Proven game design sensibility and excellent communication skills.
