An expanding and cutting edge start up in Cairns (with satellite offices in Melbourne) are seeking C++ Software Engineers with Unreal Engine experience to work on the next generation of bleeding edge software platforms using Unreal and cloud technologies!

Your new role

Aside from these external/client projects this organisation also focuses on building purpose-built CI/CD tools, cloud integration software and containerisation extensions (as well as other internal projects, all of which to be released in the future) for the Unreal platform to not only diversify their work but to also support the eco system and the developers who use it. Whilst the C++ and Unreal Engine are amongst their most used technical stacks, they also use a multitude of other technologies such as Golang, Python and a variety of cloud-based platforms (AWS, Kubernetes, Docker, etc) alongside providing each of their engineers with a custom-built desktop PC, designed to be able to handle the various cutting edge projects they are working on.

When it comes to the working environment, this organisation is very open with regards to company structure, pay scales and career development, they want each of their engineers to know what they can look forward to down the line and want them to take pride in their work and to be the best they can be!
