Lead Programmer (C++ Custom Engine)

We’re looking for a Lead Programmer to join our award winning team in Middlesbrough (UK), home to the beautiful North Yorkshire coastline and countryside. 

As a Lead Programmer at Double Eleven, your primary focus will be leading, mentoring, and guiding a talented programming team on a high profile project, which is a full art remaster of a much-loved title. While this is a hands-on role where you will contribute directly to systems and game code, your fundamental responsibility is to empower your engineers and ensure the successful delivery of a high-quality game experience.

Working closely alongside the other engineering leads, you will collaborate to set the technical strategy and ensure alignment across the project. As this project involves co-development, you will work seamlessly with our external partners. Furthermore, you will act as the first technical point of contact for the project inside your domain, taking part in regular client meetings and representing your team in critical discussions to ensure our solutions meet and exceed project demands.

Double Eleven is one of the largest independent video games developers and publishers in the UK. Headquartered in Middlesbrough, we employ over 400 people across our UK and Kuala Lumpur studios.

We are incredibly proud to partner with some of the world’s leading developers and publishers, including Rockstar Games, Obsidian Entertainment, Mojang, Bethesda Game Studios and Facepunch.
