This is a remote position.

Summary:

We are looking for Software Engineer cover to build and maintain the automation that keeps a large UGC application healthy in production across every surface it ships on.

In this role you will build and operate the systems that keep a large UGC application healthy in production. It ships as a single product across multiple surfaces: natively on VR headsets, and on mobile and PC via cloud streaming (Horizon Cross Screen). You will work alongside the runtime and KTLO (keep-the-lights-on) team, focused on reducing manual operational and on-call work through automation, keeping the cloud rendering and deployment pipelines healthy, and keeping CI/CD functional as upstream dependencies change.

Responsibilities

• 
  Build and maintain automation that keeps a large VR application healthy in production (release pipelines, build health, crash triage, incident detection)
• 
  Maintain and improve an AI-assisted code repair system that creates and lands fix diffs autonomously
• 
  Develop tooling to automatically identify broken builds, pinpoint root-cause changes, and recommend or execute fixes
• 
  Monitor production quality metrics and respond to regressions and outages
• 
  Reduce manual on-call burden through automation, with a goal of cutting recurring operational work by 80–90%
• 
  Complete required infrastructure migrations to keep CI/CD pipelines functional as upstream dependencies are retired

Requirements

• 
  8+ years of professional software engineering experience, or equivalent
• 
  Proven experience building and operating CI/CD, build, release, and cloud deployment pipelines at scale
• 
  Experience operating cloud services and server-side fleets in production, including reliability, capacity, and latency
• 
  Experience building or operating AI-assisted developer tooling or agents that generate or repair code
• 
  Experience building tooling that detects broken builds and traces failures to their root-cause change
• 
  Experience with production monitoring, crash triage, and incident response for a large-scale, multi-surface application
• 
  A track record of reducing operational and on-call load through automation
• 
  Experience completing infrastructure or dependency migrations without breaking downstream CI/CD
  

Desirable

• 
  Experience with cloud game or application streaming, or remote rendering
• 
  Experience with asset delivery or CDN pipelines at scale
• 
  Experience with capacity, latency, or session-orchestration monitoring for streamed workloads
• 
  Experience operating live-service or large-scale production applications (Live Ops)
• 
  Familiarity with large monorepo build systems and dependency management
• 
  Experience designing self-healing or auto-remediation systems

Benefits

• 
  Competitive salary
• 
  Healthcare contribution and inclusion in company pension scheme
• 
  Work laptop and phone
• 
  25 days annual leave (pro-rata) plus paid bank holidays
• 
  Expanding workforce with potential for career progression for top performers
