Architect procedural tools that empower game dev—own your pipeline in an agile indie studio.

Description:

About Aevox Studios LLC:
Aevox Studios LLC is an independent game development studio dedicated to crafting immersive, mechanics-driven gaming experiences. Founded on a philosophy of autonomy, transparent communication, and technical agility, we skip the bureaucratic red tape of AAA studios to focus on what actually matters: building great games.

The Role:
We are seeking a Systems & Tools Programmer with specialized experience in Unreal Engine 5 Procedural Content Generation (PCG). In this position, you will design and implement modular world-building tools, procedural generation graphs, editor utility tools, and core system architectures that empower our design pipeline.

You will play a critical role in defining how our worlds are generated, structured, and optimized—converting high-level design constraints into efficient, scalable procedural algorithms.

Key Responsibilities:
* Procedural Pipeline Development: Build, extend, and optimize procedural generation workflows using UE5 PCG (Procedural Content Generation framework), Blueprints, and C++.
* Editor Utility Tools: Create custom editor tools, scripts, and utilities that streamline level assembly, asset placement, and designer workflows.
* System Architecture: Design robust, modular C++ subsystems for environment generation, grid systems, inventory, or save/load state persistence.
* Performance Optimization: Profile procedural generation overhead, memory footprint, and rendering batch efficiency to ensure high frame rates across low- and high-end hardware.
* Documentation & Support: Provide clean technical documentation and maintain intuitive tool interfaces for non-programmer team members.

Qualifications:
* Strong proficiency in C++ and Unreal Engine 5 system architecture.
* Hands-on experience building custom graphs and rulesets using UE5 PCG or custom procedural algorithms.
* Familiarity with Unreal Editor Utility Blueprints (EUBs), Slate/UMG tools, and Editor scripting.
* Strong understanding of spatial partitioning, math algorithms (vector math, noise functions, grid logic), and data structures.
* Self-motivated with a track record of building clean, reliable, and user-friendly tools.

Nice to Haves:
* Experience with Houdini Engine / Houdini PCG workflows integrated into Unreal Engine.
* Experience with modular tile-based or dungeon-generation algorithms.
* Knowledge of asset streaming, Nanite/Lumen optimization, and level partitioning (World Partition).
