- Work closely with gameplay, animation, tech design, and networking teams to deliver readable, systemic, high‑quality, and debuggable AI, compatible with a server‑authoritative architecture.
- Maintain a constant focus on performance and scalability (CPU, AI budgets, behavioral LODs, agent counts, network impact), with a clear priority on stability and “always playable” gameplay.
- Act as a senior, hands‑on, pragmatic contributor: write code daily, mentor others, challenge over‑engineered solutions, share best practices, and help secure the delivery of critical AI features.
