Bungie has been around for a long, long time. Many people only know us through Halo, but there was much before. You can read about the trials and tribulations that brought us to this point here, in a rambling, halcyon view of days gone by.
Bungie Studios is looking for an experienced developer of server-side software to create and maintain scalable services to communicate with our games and our internal development tools. The Developer will generally use C# and SQL Server, authoring new tools and services and maintaining and expanding existing ones. Existing databases in this toolset have reached 50 billion rows, and 89,000 transactions/sec, so a firm understanding of performance and scalability is essential.
Essential Functions • Design scalable, reusable software pipelines for processing and exposing large quantities of data with the flexibility to adapt to changing interfaces as the game code evolves at the same time as the toolset. • Write clean, well-designed C# code to implement these original designs as well as to fit in to existing tools that need to grow over time. • Design and implement databases that scale without predetermined limit. • Investigate and keep up with new technology to identify where future projects can benefit from its use. • Work with the Operations team to ensure stable performance of user-facing server features in the datacenter.
Desired Qualifications • 3+ years experience with C# and SQL Server. • Experience with .Net Web Services or WCF. • Experience writing and shipping production server code preferred. • Solid understanding of database performance and tuning. • Strong familiarity with Windows server platforms. • Ability to do self-directed work as well as work alongside a team of other developers. • Working knowledge of C++. • Passion for making great games. • Bachelors Degree in CS or related field.
