Senior Verse Developer
Summary
Builds and maintains gameplay systems for Fortnite and Roblox using Verse, Unreal Engine, and UMG, mentoring junior developers and optimizing large UGC systems.
Pandvil creates some of the most played experiences on Fortnite, and we're now making moves into Roblox. With team members across the world and a new Colombia office on the way, we're at an exciting inflection point — growing fast, staying collaborative, and looking for people who want to be part of something that's already at the top and has even bigger ambitions ahead.
- About this Role
- We're building out Pandvil's first Colombian team and this is one of the founding positions. You'll start fully remote within Colombia, working closely with our global team. We're actively searching for office space now, with Medellín as our first choice and Bogotá as a strong alternative — we expect to have a physical office established within a few months. The final location will be influenced by where we find the best talent, so we welcome applicants from either city or surrounding areas who are open to working onsite once we're set up. If you're based in one city but open to relocating to the other, we'd love to know that too.

- Hands-on experience with Verse & UEFN, or 5+ years of professional experience programming in a team environment within game engines such as Unreal Engine, Unity, or Godot, with deep practical experience in Verse

- Own and architect gameplay systems using Verse, ensuring scalability, clarity, and long-term maintainability
