Fortis Games is hiring a Senior Tools Engineer to architect scalable solutions for validating ambitious multiplayer experiences. You will own the strategy for load testing and bot development, building the 'headless' infrastructure to stress-test servers at scale in an organization led by game industry veterans.
What You'll Do
- Architect the end-to-end strategy for simulating high-concurrency environments to identify server-side performance limits.
- Build 'headless' versions of the game client to simulate massive player loads efficiently.
- Develop automated agents and deployment strategies for bot infrastructure.
- Partner with engineering to integrate existing automation modules and UI testing tools into projects.
- Create and maintain debug menus, validators, and tools that enhance productivity for QA and Design teams.
- Ensure all test code and bot deployments are optimized for performance across cloud-based and local environments.
What We're Looking For
- Strong mastery of C# and at least one scripting language (Python, Go, or JavaScript).
- Hands-on experience with Unity (or similar engines), including adapting engine code for performance and 'headless' testing.
- Proven ability to build game bots and AI-driven agents to simulate complex player behavior and automate gameplay loops at scale.
- Experience identifying system capacity limits and simulating high-concurrency environments for multiplayer games.
- Expertise in backend-driven validation and simulating user behavior without a frontend/UI.
- Deep understanding of game-specific technical challenges, such as network code, latency, and client-server synchronization.
- Experience designing debug menus, internal development tools, and reusable components for designers, artists, and engineers.
- Knowledge of AWS (EC2, S3) for scaling bot instances and familiarity integrating frameworks with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins).
Technical Stack
