## Description

As an AI & Gameplay engineer at Fuse you'll work with the whole team to help make our games play great. We believe gameplay is at the heart of all great games and is the glue that binds it all together. We also think that multi-disciplined developers make sure that systems and functionality are integrated effectively, so we favour talented individuals that have interests outside any one specialism.

In this role, you'll work on features connected to ensuring the player has an appropriately challenging and engaging experience with our games.
This could range from creating and configuring behaviour systems for NPCs, to helping build the next generation of entertaining racing AI. You'll report to a manager within our experienced team of engineers and take direction from our leaders in design and engineering.

We believe that collaboration gets the best results.
Our gameplay team works closely with other areas such as audio, VFX and UI, as well as designers. Everyone at Fuse should expect to be a little bit of a generalist - this is especially true as we grow our team - and this gives an opportunity to bring your unique perspective to problems outside your specialty.
