Our SDKs ship in nearly every game 2K publishes, with first-class support across Unreal, Unity, native C++, Go, JavaScript, and more—and we need someone who can hold the architectural picture across all of them.</p> <p data-path-to-node="7">This is an individual contributor role. You will not have direct reports, but you will own technical decisions for the SDK portfolio and partner closely with engineering managers on direction, hiring, and team growth. We expect you to spend roughly half your time writing code and half your time setting technical direction—reviewing designs, raising the quality bar, and unblocking other engineers.</p> <p data-path-to-nod
