Job description

Overview

We are seeking a highly autonomous, high-output DevOps & AI Engineer to design and build a pioneering AI-assisted system. This solo-developer initiative will automate the complex integration, merging, and migration of game project branches across versions, encompassing both Unreal Engine 5 and our proprietary APEX engine projects. The role includes creating an intelligent system that manages Git and Perforce workflows and integrates with Jenkins for preflight validation and automated testing. The system will leverage advanced LLM-powered agentic workflows to classify, triage, and resolve merge conflicts with engine APIs and scripting environments. This position involves independently building a sophisticated backend agent framework and an intuitive frontend dashboard within an existing CI/CD infrastructure.

• Design and Build an AI-Powered Integration System: Architect, develop, and deploy a comprehensive AI-assisted platform that automates game project branch integration across Unreal Engine 5 and APEX, supporting both Git and Perforce and integrating with Jenkins-based CI/CD workflows.
• Develop Intelligent Conflict Resolution: Implement advanced LLM-powered agentic workflows to classify, triage, and resolve merge conflicts with deep contextual understanding and multi-pass investigation rather than blind binary merges.
• Engine and Scripting Automation: Leverage native Python scripting and engine APIs to interact with Unreal Engine, automate tasks such as Blueprint recompilation and contract-change updates, and extend to proprietary engines like APEX.
• Full-Stack Development and Workflow Orchestration: Independently build the backend agent framework and an internal frontend dashboard. Design and manage complex state machines for "Paused Integration" workflows with human-in-the-loop intervention and learning from human resolutions.
• Define and Track Success Metrics: Establish and monitor KPIs that measure AI effectiveness (e.g., Attempt Rate, Escalation Rate, Rollback Rate) to drive continuous improvement and system reliability.
• Version Control & CI/CD Mastery: Deep expertise in Perforce and Git, plus experience designing Jenkins pipelines for robust CI/CD within mature development infrastructures.
• Game Engine & Asset Pipeline Knowledge: Working knowledge of Unreal Engine 5 project structures and asset pipelines, including merging assets such as .uasset files and Blueprints.
• Applied AI/ML Practitioner: Ability to build practical AI applications using LLMs via APIs, including prompt engineering, context engineering, agentic frameworks, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) focused on orchestration of code diffs and automated conflict resolution.
• Polyglot Developer & Systems Integrator: Proficient in Python, C# for engine tooling, and C++, with full-stack web development experience (e.g., React and Node.js) for internal dashboards. Skilled at orchestrating systems across version control, CI/CD tools, Jira, and Slack.
• Autonomous & Strategic Thinker: Self-directed professional capable of driving complex projects and leveraging AI orchestration to delegate work to agent sub-systems with robust state management.
• Game Industry Experience: Demonstrated experience in the game industry or engine development and an understanding of the unique technical and workflow challenges in game production.
