DevOps Engineer (Contract)

Mountaintop is a new game studio creating multiplayer games for players who crave a challenge. We’re an independent, remote-first studio primarily located in the US and Canada.

We’re creating the types of games that bring people together — and keep them together for “just one more round.” The types of games that inspired us as kids. The games that become our hobbies, and sometimes our obsessions.

Games are a reflection of the teams that make them. So to make the best games, we’re building a studio that puts the team first — one that's collaborative, anti-crunch, diverse, and inclusive.

We’d love for you to join us.

We're looking for a DevOps Engineer to ensure the smooth operation of our patch generation pipeline for a project developed in Unreal Engine. In this role, you will work closely with our development team to build the infrastructure (Unreal + Jenkins) necessary to facilitate efficient game patch generation and build processes.

• Collaborate with the development team to understand the requirements of our patching system and prioritize tasks accordingly.
• Manage and maintain Jenkins pipelines for patching and patch builds, ensuring reliability and efficiency.
• Configure and optimize Jenkins plugins and integrations to streamline the patch generation processes.
• Troubleshoot issues with build and deployment pipelines, identifying root causes, and implementing solutions.
• Implement automation scripts and tools to enhance patching workflows and reduce manual intervention.
• Monitor pipeline performance and resource utilization, making adjustments as necessary to improve efficiency.
• Provide technical guidance and support to the development team on patching-related tasks and issues.
• Document procedures, configurations, and best practices related to patching and pipeline management.

• A love for playing and making amazing games
• A minimum of 5 years experience working on building systems
• Experience working with Jenkins
• Experience with Unreal Engine build tools (BuildGraph, Unreal Automation Tool, Unreal Build Tool)
• Experience working with Perforce

• Self-motivated, with great time management skills

• Understanding of DevOps principles and practices, including Fast Feedback, Continuous Learning, and Flow
• Computer science, engineering, mathematics, or related degree
