About Magic Media: Magic Media is a pioneering media, entertainment, and technology group powered entirely by cross-border creativity and technical innovation. With a solid physical footprint spanning 15 countries, we maintain world-class expertise across software development, art asset pipelines, cinematic animation, cybersecurity, game development, VFX, and specialized video production ecosystems. We collaborate intimately with leading developers and flagship publishers within the international games and tech sectors, delivering bespoke technical solutions designed around individual product profiles and executed by global industry experts.

Position Overview

We are seeking a highly self-motivated, goal-oriented C++ Developer with extensive full-time custom game engine experience to join our core Engineering group. In this project-based remote seat, you will be responsible for maintaining, refactoring, and constructing high-performance software code blocks across multiple assigned work streams. Moving far beyond high-level gameplay scripts, you will collaborate with cross-disciplinary creators and engineers to provide technical oversight, ship new gameplay features, and apply critical low-level resource optimizations to active live games. This track requires an autonomous problem solver who loves digital content production and brings an intense passion for building awesome gaming experiences across console, PC, and mobile systems.

Key Responsibilities

  • Core C++ Systems Engineering: Maintain, refactor, and deploy highly optimized code paths using native C++ across all assigned software development work streams.
  • Live Game Feature Hardening: Support active, high-traffic game products by designing, programming, and launching fresh features alongside deep frame-rate and asset optimizations.
  • Architectural Oversight: Provide structural guidance and technical design alignment across the entirety of the application layer to enforce code modularity and cleanliness.
  • Cross-Disciplinary Engineering Syncs: Collaborate cross-functionally with distributed software engineers, technical designers, and content creators to devise optimal answers for complex engineering challenges.
  • Compilation Optimization: Leverage a deep technical knowledge of compiler inner workings to ensure lightning-fast execution, clean hardware abstraction, and smooth builds.

Required Skills & Qualifications

  • 3+ years of verified commercial history operating as a professional C++ Game Developer within studio environments.
  • Demonstrated history driving cross-platform software development cycles (targeting PC, console, or mobile operating networks).
  • Deep, granular technical understanding of compiler mechanics, memory allocation loops, and low-level code compilation behaviors.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication mechanics, maintaining absolute fluency in English.
  • Location Context: 100% remote-first operational framework open to talented developers globally under project-based engagement models.

Preferred Strategic Indicators (Nice to Have)

  • Professional or conversational language proficiency in Russian.
  • Familiarity or foundational scripting knowledge leveraging secondary programming languages such as Python and Java.
  • A deep personal passion for hunting games, survival mechanics, or advanced player-versus-environment (PvE) gameplay loops.

What We Offer

  • The exceptional technical canvas to apply and expand your programming depth across a highly diverse variety of engaging, world-class gaming projects.
  • Profound work-from-home remote flexibility complemented by completely flexible working hours.
  • Participation inside a highly vibrant, multicultural international group holding physical technology offices globally.
  • Clear pathways for rapid corporate career growth, ongoing structural training modules, and professional self-improvement opportunities.
  • An inclusive workplace culture driven by open communication channels and like-minded, gaming-obsessed creators.
