Engineering

Entry Level

At Iron Galaxy Studios, our teams support a healthy work-life balance, promote continuous improvement, and champion a diverse people-focused culture. We encourage professionals from every heritage, lifestyle, or background to apply.

This is a full-time, hybrid position in Orlando (FL), Chicago (IL), or Nashville (TN) with relocation options for out-of-state applicants.

Software Engineers at Iron Galaxy work on a wide variety of projects, including creating new games from the ground up, co-developing games with partners, and porting existing games to new platforms. Our projects tend to have shorter development cycles; it’s not uncommon for a software engineer to work on more than one project in a year. We’ve found that this helps keep things fresh and provides opportunities to utilize experience gained from previous projects.

As an Associate Engineer at Iron Galaxy, you’ll grow your skills to implement features and systems, debug problems, and tackle new challenges. In addition to your technical skills, our team asks for solid communication work within diverse cross-functional teams. This is an entry-level position. The ideal candidates will have some knowledge of programming within games but we don’t expect you to be a finished product. Responsibilities vary based on the project and your skills/expertise. Here are some examples of what an engineer might be expected to do at Iron Galaxy Studios.

Responsibilities

Support the team in developing features, systems, and tools
Communicate regularly with your lead and the rest of the team
Accept constructive feedback graciously and strive to grow as a programmer
Write robust, maintainable code

Desired Skills

Familiarity with game development concepts
Basic understanding of C/C++
Desire to learn and grow
Solid debugging and problem-solving skills
Strong communication skills

Bonus Skills

Base Knowledge of Perforce, Jira, and Confluence
A passion for games as a long-term career

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor required by law to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We are also required to measure our progress toward having at least 7% of our workforce be individuals with disabilities. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had a disability. Because a person may become disabled at any time, we ask all of our employees to update their information at least every five years.

Identifying yourself as an individual with a disability is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer will be maintained confidentially and not be seen by selecting officials or anyone else involved in making personnel decisions. Completing the form will not negatively impact you in any way, regardless of whether you have self-identified in the past. For more information about this form or the equal employment obligations of federal contractors under Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
