Blackbird Interactive is a creative-fueled, future-driven, independent game studio where the best talent in the industry can find long-term careers to help grow their abilities while working on a wide range of projects, which encompass world-class IPs as well as our own creations across multiple genres.
Our studio operates as a remote-first workplace, offering flexible work arrangements.
At this time, we are only able to hire candidates who are legally eligible to work in Canada and reside within Canada.
We are looking for a Lead Software Engineer to drive the technical direction and execution of a new original game being developed in Unreal Engine 5.

  • Establish engineering best practices for Unreal Engine 5 development, including code review standards, debugging workflows, profiling habits, and technical planning.




  • Collaborate with technical leadership to break down risks, define implementation strategies, and align engineering execution with project goals and production timelines.




  • Mentor engineers through design reviews, hands-on problem solving, and day-to-day technical guidance. Contribute to hiring, onboarding, and raising the overall quality bar of the team.




  • Communicate clearly with stakeholders about technical constraints, trade-offs, dependencies, and execution plans.



You’ll Thrive Here If You




  • Have 5+ years of professional game development experience, with demonstrated technical leadership through project ownership, mentorship, and setting engineering standards.




  • Have strong professional experience with C++ and Unreal Engine, including gameplay architecture, runtime systems, debugging, and optimization.




  • Enjoy being jack-of-all-trades, getting your hands dirty and solving problems across all engineering spectrum including engine, gameplay, build systems, automation.




  • Have deep experience building and maintaining gameplay systems that are responsive, scalable, and designer-friendly.




  • Are comfortable working across systems boundaries, collaborating with multiple disciplines, and balancing short-term production needs with long-term technical health.




  • Bring a strong ownership mindset, practical decision-making, and a focus on helping teams move effectively under production constraints.




Bonus XP




  • Experience with the modern Unreal Engine 5 systems, like Metahuman, Nanite, Lumen.




  • Shipped at least one title on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and or Nintendo hardware, especially in platform, performance, or engine roles.




  • Familiarity with Perforce, Jenkins, Unreal Build System, Unreal Gauntlet.
