Who are we?

We’re Pixaera, a gaming start-up with a mission: to empower people through play, by building immersive technology that transforms world-wide access to learning. Think Roblox for professional learning and collaboration. Today, our products save lives by making people safer at work, both physically and psychologically, but we’re not satisfied- we’re going to change the way people learn in all industries and environments.

We’re backed by leading venture capital firm LocalGlobe (the backers of Wise, Monzo, and Improbable) and gaming veterans (like the founders of Faceit) to help us change the way the world learns- forever.

Who are we looking for?

We’re looking for a high-quality, experienced Senior Game Developer who wants to use their experience to build a new, gamified world of learning.

You will be responsible for:

  • Developing modular and extensible game systems in C++ and blueprints

  • Refactoring existing systems to be more maintainable, more reliable and better performing

  • Porting our game systems to new platforms and extending support for existing platforms

  • Working with and supporting artists and technical artists by providing well-tested workflows and solutions

  • Providing documentation for game systems, including usage patterns and limitations

Who are you?

A successful candidate will have the following skillsets and experience:

  • 3+ Years of professional Unreal Engine 4 development experience

  • At least one shipped title or product

  • Excellent programming skills in C++

  • Working knowledge of Unreal multiplayer/replication systems, patterns and structures

  • Familiar with source control (Perforce)

  • Professional experience developing VR applications

How do we support and benefit our employees?

  • Work from anywhere: Fully remote set-up, with 2x company-wide meetups per year to meet and bond with your colleagues

  • Flexible working hours: as long as you deliver, we don’t mind when you work. Delivery is more important than face-time.

  • £2k hardware stipend, so you can kit yourself out with all the equipment you need to succeed

  • 25 days of company vacation allowance per year in addition to local public holidays. If there is a public holiday that you would rather work, let us know and you can swap it for another day in lieu

  • Competitive stock options

We are in the process of reviewing our company-wide benefits with our team, which will be rolled out in the coming months.
