Who we are
At Fortis Games we aspire to make great games that bring people together while redefining how game companies work. We believe in building a sense of belonging through our games, their communities, and how we operate and treat each other. Through our game communities, we will create powerful connections and lasting memories. We will foster a culture of diversity, equity and belonging where together our diverse skills, experiences and backgrounds impact the games we make.
We are an early but mighty organization with a leadership team of game industry veterans. There are many opportunities for you to have a big impact on the products we'll be making as well as the overall direction of the company. If you're passionate about tackling difficult problems with direct and thoughtful communication and team first mentality, we may be the right place for you.
As a Sr. Multiplayer Systems Engineer (Test & Automation), you will architect the scalable solutions required to validate ambitious multiplayer experiences. You will own the strategy for load testing and bot development, building the "headless" infrastructure that allows us to stress-test our servers at scale. Collaborating closely with core engineers and QA, you will bridge the gap between game development and infrastructure stability to ensure a seamless experience for our players.
What you’ll achieve- Architect Load Testing Strategies: Own the end-to-end strategy for simulating high-concurrency environments to identify server-side performance limits.
- Develop Headless Clients: Build "headless" versions of the game client to simulate massive player loads efficiently.
- Build Bot Infrastructure: Develop automated agents and deployment strategies.
- Integrate Automation Frameworks: Partner with engineering to integrate existing automation modules and UI testing tools into the projects.
- Engineer Internal Tools: Create and maintain debug menus, validators, and tools that enhance productivity for the broader QA and Design teams.
- Optimize for Scalability: Ensure all test code and bot deployments are optimized for performance across cloud-based and local environments.
- Strong mastery of C# and at least one scripting language (Python, Go, or JavaScript).
- Hands-on experience with Unity (or similar engines), including the ability to adapt engine code for performance and "headless" testing.
- Bot & Agent Development: Proven ability to build game bots and AI-driven agents to simulate complex player behavior and automate gameplay loops at scale.
- Performance & Load Testing: Experience identifying system capacity limits and simulating high-concurrency environments for multiplayer games.
- Expertise in backend-driven validation and simulating user behavior without a frontend/UI.
- Deep understanding of game-specific technical challenges, such as network code, latency, and client-server synchronization.
- Internal Tooling & SDKs: Experience designing debug menus, internal development tools, and reusable components for designers, artists, and engineers.
- Infrastructure & Scalability: Knowledge of AWS (EC2, S3) for scaling bot instances and familiarity integrating frameworks with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins).
