Description
INTRODUCTION
Competition Company is an ambitious young studio, driven by the passion of the youth and enabled by gaming, esports and racing veterans. With our main offices situated in Munich (Germany), and Malmö (Sweden), we are proud of having a distributed team across various countries and cities.
We are in the race of our lives with a precise motivation: offer players, digital racers and car enthusiasts the ultimate playground for them to enjoy, share, create and even monetize their passion for cars and digital racing.
The product
RENNSPORT is the playground for car enthusiasts. A live-service racing simulation in its alpha stage of development with thousands of eager players already on the waiting list for release, as well as a top tier live competition dubbed “ESL R1”.
RENNSPORT (the game) and ESL R1 are the tip of the iceberg in our vision to completely transform how players and fans engage with racing games, where the community of players, modders, and pro drivers are front and centre of everything we do.
RESPONSIBILITIES
We are forming a new team focused on building the tech for our ambitious sim-racing project. The project is our own proprietary IP and we are looking for Tech/Engine/Rendering Programmers who share our values and passion for creating the best games possible. RENNSPORT’s crew has high ambitions, so we value smart decisions, creativity and passion for the craft. If you consider yourself to be a skilled programmer that thrives in close collaborations with others - then we might be the next challenge you're looking for.
Why is this a great time to join RENNSPORT?
"The projects will face a lot of interesting challenges when it comes to world building, pipelines, streaming and performance - an interesting challenge that we can’t wait to tackle!" - Jan Harasym, CTO.
We are working with UE5, but while it is a feature-rich and established engine, our games require something more. Your task would be to improve the existing functionality and framework in Unreal, using the existing technology to implement new and alternative features to further improve the engine for our purposes.
YOUR PROFILE
Game engine or renderer development experience.
Great C++ programmer.
A good understanding of how to design, implement, and work in a feature-rich game engine.
An understanding of how to safely and efficiently run tasks concurrently.

A little bit of an ego will likely help.
What could make you stand out more?
