The posting

About the Company: Founded in 2017 by Anthony and Joe Russo, AGBO is an artist-led independent studio shaping the future of film and television. The Russo Brothers and AGBO have generated more than $7 billion at the global box office, including Avengers: Endgame. The studio’s projects include Academy Award–winning Everything Everywhere All at Once, Netflix hits The Gray Man and Extraction, and Prime Video’s visceral thriller The Bluff and the global Citadel franchise.

AGBO is currently in production with Netflix on Tygo and Mercenary, both part of the Extraction universe, as well as with Lionsgate on John Rambo, a prequel to the iconic franchise. The studio is in post-production on The Whisper Man, starring Robert De Niro, and Avengers: Doomsday, which will be released December 18, 2026. AGBO will begin shooting Avengers: Secret Wars later this year. Both upcoming Avengers films are directed by Anthony and Joe Russo and co-produced by AGBO and Marvel Studios.

In 2023, AGBO welcomed Donald Mustard—former Chief Creative Officer at Epic Games and co-creator of Fortnite—as a partner. Mustard brings a bold creative vision to AGBO: to expand what storytelling can be through immersive, interconnected worlds that span across media. We’re building the future of storytelling—and we’re looking for bold, creative minds to help shape it. If you’re ready to help define what comes next, we’d love to meet you.

Position Summary: As Senior Gameplay Engineer, you are a versatile engineer who thrives in a collaborative environment and deeply enjoys empowering designers. You will work closely with designers and the broader engineering team to fine-tune character, camera, and control systems and help us find the fun in our gameplay loops. Your work will have a direct impact on how our games feel, play, and evolve through iterative development. This is a hands-on, high-impact role on an ambitious team creating something special and exciting.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Collaborate deeply with design to implement, iterate, and polish core gameplay systems—especially around movement, feel, and player responsiveness.
  • Be the primary driver of relevant gameplay systems, ensuring a satisfying and immersive player experience.
  • Build prototypes and iterate quickly to test and refine gameplay ideas.
  • Identify opportunities to improve workflows and tools for designers and fellow engineers.
  • Contribute to code quality, performance optimization, and engineering best practices across the codebase.
  • Mentor junior and mid-level engineers, providing technical guidance and code reviews.
  • Perform other duties as assigned.

Qualifications & Skills:

  • 5-8 years of experience in gameplay engineering with at least one shipped title; bonus if you helped grow and maintain a live service game.
  • Strong programming skills in C++ and deep familiarity with Unreal Engine systems.
  • Deep understanding of player-centric gameplay systems.
  • Collaborative mindset with the ability to interpret, enhance, and proactively expand design intent through code.
  • A passion for tuning, iteration, and crafting joyful player experiences.
  • Significant experience in UE4 and/or UE5.
  • Bonus: Previous experience at a startup or on early-stage projects.

Additional Information:

  • This role is based in Raleigh, NC, and we are primarily seeking candidates who are currently located in the area or are open to relocating. In-person collaboration with our technical and creative teams is essential to the success of this position.
  • Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the U.S.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
