The Role
With multiple awards to our name, Larian Studios has proven that we’re dedicated to delivering high-quality role-playing games. As we move on to new projects, the studio that brought you Baldur’s Gate 3 & Divinity: Original Sin 2 is looking for a Senior Automation Engineer to help us automate the development processes.

We’re forming a pioneering new Automation team of programmers and technical innovators focused on accelerating game development through cutting-edge tools, procedural generation, and machine learning. This cross-functional team will work across engine, gameplay, and tools development to build intelligent systems that empower our artists, designers, and storytellers — and help us tackle the scale and depth our games demand.
You’ll be at the heart of exploring and implementing smart automation — from content creation pipelines to testing workflows — driving efficiency without compromising our signature handcrafted feel.

Responsibilities

  • Work closely with other teams to identify parts of their processes that can be automated (including for instance Engine, Machine Learning, QA, DevOps and creative teams to automate the testing process during development)
  • Design and implement pipelines to automate development processes 
  • Extend, maintain and improve our existing tools
  • Provide support for other team members during critical stages of development
  • Writing and updating documentation
  • Training automation users
  • Monitoring improvements in processes through automation

Requirement

  • Minimum 4 years programming experience, preferably in games
  • Good knowledge of programming languages (C++, C#, Python)
  • Readiness to experiment with new technologies and software to meet development requirements and limitations
  • Excellent problem-solving and debugging skills with a keen attention to detail
  • Experience in a similar position in another company
  • Good communication skills in spoken and written English
  • You are a team player and willing to take responsibility
  • This is a full-time, on-site role, requiring your presence in the office to support collaboration and creativity.

Nice to have

  • Experience in full stack web programming (TypeScript, React, Node.js, MySQL)
  • Knowledge of Perforce
  • Knowledge of Jenkins and Groovy
  • Good knowledge of relational databases (RDBMs)

What We Offer

  • An international team of over 500 employees spread across 7 studios around the world, each of which have their own unique qualities, and maintain a small-studio feel
  • An open, collaborative environment where ideas are welcome and encouraged
  • Sharing hobbies and passions with like-minded colleagues
  • Inclusive environment with many activities organized by the studios or the employees
  • Commitment to making the best game possible for the fans, including listening to community feedback
