Zusammenfassung

Paradox Tinto is seeking a Managing Tech Lead to steer the live grand strategy game's technical team in Sitges, Barcelona. You will drive architecture, mentor engineers and keep the codebase healthy while shipping regular updates.

You’ll work with designers, artists and QA to balance performance, scope and schedule. The role requires solid C++ experience, prior team leadership, and clear English communication.

Qualifikationen

• Solid C++ experience in a professional setting, ideally in games, including at least one shipped or live title.
• Experience leading a team of programmers, including the people side: setting expectations, giving feedback, and having the difficult conversations.
• Technical judgment: you prioritize under real constraints, make trade-offs and own the call.
• The ability to explain technical decisions clearly to engineers and non-engineers alike.

Aufgaben

• Manage the programming team: one-to-ones, feedback, career development, performance, hiring and onboarding.
• Set clear technical objectives for the team that support the creative vision and the product roadmap, and contribute to technical direction alongside the other leads.
• Drive improvements to the game and the existing codebase, with a focus on performance, stability and maintainability.
• Work with the other managers to remove blockers, keep production moving and balance technical decisions against scope, schedule and budget.
• Keep the team's work aligned with the roadmap across concurrent update branches, so that we build and release with as few technical setbacks as possible.
• Stay connected to Paradox's wider technical organization, so that practices, tools and knowledge flow in both directions.
• Time permitting, contribute hands-on: implementing features and systems, reviewing code and solving gameplay problems with efficient technical solutions.
