The Zenimax site has been updated with a job posting for a Core Tech Programmer. While that is fairly dry sounding, it is what's in the job description that has us intrigued: The "desired skills" only mention one thing - MMO development experience. Further, the first line in the post is "Join the team at ZOS and work on an exciting NEW IP!" (emphasis ours) The job is based in the Hunt Valley, Maryland office.
Join the team at ZOS and work on an exciting new IP!
Responsibilities:
- Implement core engine tech
- Turn engine architectural goals into reality
- Develop core engine components (threading, object system, memory management, file system, etc.)
- Work with engineers, artists, designers, world builders, and producers to match core engine features and performance to the game’s vision
Other requirements include "strong technical knowledge of XBox One, PlayStation 4 and PC".
What do you think?
Thanks to our anonymous tipster!
