ENGINE PROGRAMMER INTERN

What You'll Do

We are looking for an Engine Programmer Intern to join the team building a new serialization stack for Unreal Engine. This schema-based serialization system will be at the heart of how engine content is saved, loaded, and versioned. As part of the serialization team you will be given a feature to own within our development cycle — such as schema evolution, data migration / recovery, type bindings, or debug tooling. You will work with your engineering lead and partner-teams across the engine to flesh out the system and build core technology that millions of players and creators rely on every day.

In this role, you will

• Design and implement a feature within the serialization stack, taking it from proposal to shipped code with guidance from your engineering lead

• Write high-performance, memory-efficient C++ for systems where correctness and backwards compatibility are critical

• Build tooling that helps users work with serialized data — such as diffing, visua
