Software Engineer - Game Integrations
About The Position
Medal is the largest platform for gaming clips, where millions of gamers capture, share, and discover new games. The company's mission is to design products that make sharing and connecting around gaming seamless and fun, and to build a place where brands and game publishers can reach high-quality gamers to grow their products. Medal's data powers General Intuition, a frontier research lab that recently raised $320M at a $2.3B valuation led by Khosla Ventures with participation from General Catalyst, Eric Schmidt, and Jeff Bezos. The role of Software Engineer - Game Integrations will focus on deepening how Medal's recorder interfaces with games. This involves building and maintaining integrations that interface directly with game engines and game-specific APIs by developing engine plugins (Unreal, Unity). The goal is to extract game-specific data and power features like auto clipping. This is low-level, hands-on work that requires understanding how games work, writing engine plugins, reverse-engineering how games expose data, and working with game APIs and log files to enable automatic capture of gaming moments.
