Job Description

Specialising in AAA PC and console development, Red Kite has a proven track record in the creation of cutting-edge games across varying genres.
Having set up home in the beautiful Grade-II listed Park Row House in Leeds city centre, Red Kite continues to develop top-quality games for multiple world-class AAA publishing partners such as Sony, Microsoft, Activision, 2K, SEGA, Epic, Warner Bros., 505, Rare, Codemasters, Mediatonic and Remedy.
Several titles include Hogwarts Legacy, Fall Guys, Mafia: Definitive Edition, Mafia III: Definitive Edition, Control Ultimate Edition, Two Point Hospital, Knockout City, Battletoads, Crackdown 3, Payday 2, Team Sonic Racing, DiRT 4 and God of War III: Remastered.
It’s a very exciting time to join Red Kite; not only are we working on multiple high-profile games for gen 9 platforms, we're also developing our own IP. Here’s what we can tell you about:
  • We’re partnered with Mediatonic working on the smash-hit, Fall Guys
  • We’re working on a high-profile AAA 1st person shooter in UE5
  • We’re working on Red Kite’s first original game
One of the most interesting aspects to working at Red Kite is the diversity of projects present within the studio. It's certainly never boring and we constantly find ourselves pushing the boundaries when it comes to the gameplay that we're creating and the technologies that we're engineering.

The Role @ Red Kite Games

Red Kite are working on a variety of exciting open world AAA games and has a fantastic opportunity for an experienced gameplay programmer to strengthen and shape one of our teams.
In this role you will be expected to implement and maintain a wide variety of game features and functionality, in collaboration with our multi-disciplined development teams.

    • Devise innovative solutions to overcome platform constraints
    • Mentor less experienced people, sharing knowledge and best practices with the team
    • Assist in planning your work and the work of others

To be successful you will have:

    • Shipped multiple titles,
    • Strong C++ programming skills,
    • A desire to solve problems,
    • A passion for games and game technology.
