DevOps & Release Engineer

About the Position

Join at a pivotal moment as we kick off the pre-production of a new ambitious AA PC/Console project.

Your mission will be to design and build the foundations of our build, CI/CD, and release ecosystem from the ground up-ensuring that as the project scales, teams can turn code into stable, playable builds quickly, reliably, and at production scale.

Responsibilities

• Design and industrialize Unreal Engine CI/CD pipelines (build, cook, package, deploy) across PC, Console, and Mobile, with reproducibility and idempotency as first-class requirements
• Architect and scale a robust Internal Developer Platform on Kubernetes, leveraging Helm and containerized microservices to deploy highly available web tools and studio services outside the core engine
• Implement automated quality gates to shift issue detection left in the pipeline, before builds break downstream
• Optimize Perforce as critical infrastructure (streams, workspaces, sync performance), and operate a hybrid infrastructure (on-prem + cloud) with an SRE mindset - uptime, latency, and cost/performance trade-offs guiding decisions on Horde and Zen Server
• Develop internal tooling and self-service capabilities that reduce developer friction, and drive release engineering (branching, promotion, versioning, rollback readiness)

Requirements

• Solid experience building and operating CI/CD pipelines in a game production context (Unreal Engine strongly preferred), ideally across multiple platforms (PC, Console, Mobile)
• Comfortable with infrastructure-as-code, hybrid cloud/on-prem environments, and an SRE mindset - you reach for metrics and monitoring before you reach for guesses
• Hands-on with Perforce at scale, and familiar with tools like Horde, Zen Server, or equivalent build/orchestration systems
• A builder at heart: you'd rather script away a recurring friction point than let developers work around it manually
• Pragmatic and collaborative - you know release engineering is a team sport, and you communicate trade-offs clearly to both engineers and production

We Offer

• Opportunity for technical ownership of a critical production system at studio level
• Evolution toward Staff / Principal DevOps or Platform Lead roles
• Strategic impact on how games are built and shipped
