We are managing Sony Computer Entertainment's development recruitment in the UK. Their Cambridge Studio, renowned for action adventure games, has won major acclaim for past releases, such as MediEvil, Primal, Ghost Hunter and 24.
They are looking for a senior level programmer to work on the development of an exciting new project. The role will involve the collation of requirements from the internal game teams, the design and implementation of solutions to meet them, and the continued support for those solutions.
The candidate will be responsible for the architecture and development of many significant system components, encompassing the areas of asset generation, content authoring and conversion pipelines to the runtime. As such, the candidate would have substantial experience in this field, having worked in this capacity to support a previously released title.

Able to organise and track their own work, the candidate will be self-directed with excellent time management skills. A strong man-manager, they will also play a key role in the future growth of the tools team, and be expected to assist in the recruitment and development of the staff, therein.
