Experienced 3D Graphics Programmer

Feral Interactive is looking for skilled developers with demonstrable experience in 3D graphics programming for games to join our core 3D cross-platform development team.

We specialise in bringing AAA games to new platforms and audiences by integrating them perfectly into the target operating systems: our releases cover a range of genres and present a variety of programming challenges.

This is a technically challenging role working mainly in our low-level graphics libraries, ideal for those who like working with shaders and graphics drivers and solving complex problems.

You will take responsibility for significant areas of our codebase primarily focussed on the 3D graphics elements. These might be developed from scratch to fulfil the needs of a specific game or you could take over existing code to enhance or further develop it. Visual correctness and performance are both vital and you will need to be familiar with techniques for achieving both.

To demonstrate your ability, please include a link to your personal portfolio or GitHub in your application; we are always happy to look at code samples.

Our ideal candidate is comfortable taking responsibility and working independently, but also works well in a team. You will of course have the support of other developers, as well as our on-site QA team.

This is a permanent, full time position at our office in Wandsworth, southwest London.
