- Innovation Mindset: Passion for pushing the boundaries of real-time physics in interactive simulation.
- Leadership & Mentorship : Ability to guide developers, set technical direction for an area, and enforce best practices.
- Problem-Solving : Creative and analytical approach to complex simulation challenges.
- Communication : Clear articulation of technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
- Participate in setting physics architecture: Define data models, simulation loops, solver strategies, and integration points across engine and simulation systems.
- Deliver core physics features: Collision detection (broad ‑ phase/narrow ‑ phase), entity controllers, vehicle dynamics with an emphasis on orbital mechanics, particles/fluid mechanics (with an emphasis on atmospheric dynamics), etc.
- Integrate with simulation logic (gameplay) & animation: Build physics ‑ driven interactions, authoring tools, and runtime hooks (e.g., inverse kinematics, state machines, event systems).
- Performance ownership: Profile, optimize, and budget frame time and memory across platforms; lead multi-threading/Job System/SIMD efforts; evaluate GPU compute opportunities.
- Stability & robustness: Establish test suites, golden scenarios, and verification and validation practices; reduce edge ‑ case instability (stacking, tunneling, jitter, constraint drift).
- Tooling & workflow: Build/debug tools, visualizers, probes, and authoring pipelines that accelerate designer iteration and QA efficiency.
- Cross ‑ functional leadership: Partner with back-end, AI, data pipeline, and platform teams; communicate constraints/trade ‑ offs; align milestones with production.
- Participate in code reviews, design docs, and coding standards; cultivate a high bar for craft, documentation, and reproducibility.
- Education: BS/MS in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Physics, Mathematics (or equivalent practical experience).
- Experience: 5+ years in real ‑ time/game physics engineering; 2+ shipped titles with substantial physics ownership (AA/AAA preferred).
- Programming: Expert C++ (modern standards), data ‑ oriented design, memory management, profiling/debugging (VTune, PIX, Nsight, RenderDoc, etc.).
- Rigid ‑ body dynamics, collision detection (GJK, SAT, continuous collision detection/time of impact), integration schemes (semi ‑ implicit Euler, RK, constraint solvers).
- Numerical stability, error control, and performance trade ‑ offs under real ‑ time constraints.
