Every great story has a new beginning, and yours starts here.

Welcome to Warner Bros. Discovery… the stuff dreams are made of.

Who We Are…

When we say, “the stuff dreams are made of,” we’re not just referring to the world of wizards, dragons and superheroes, or even to the wonders of Planet Earth. Behind WBD’s vast portfolio of iconic content and beloved brands, are the storytellers bringing our characters to life, the creators bringing them to your living rooms and the dreamers creating what’s next…

The creative team that brought Mortal Kombat and Injustice to life is now NetherRealm Studios, part of the Warner Bros. Games family. With over 20 years of creation under our belts, NetherRealm’s mission remains the same: to create cutting edge entertainment and deliver industry leading tech, game art and overall gaming experiences. NetherRealm Studios is a collaborative and creative environment, constantly striving to up the ante on what is possible in interactive entertainment. Our team is comprised of dedicated professionals with years of experience who are at the forefront of the gaming industry. The passion and energy that made Mortal Kombat a reality is still on display every day in our offices, our hallways and most definitely the studio’s arcade room.

The Job

As a junior associate software engineer, you’ll work remotely from your home, or from our legendary Chicago studio, helping our senior analytics engineer build out the technical infrastructure for data analytics on our next AAA mobile game.

  • Meet with data analysts, determining the type and format of data needed to answer player behavior questions.

  • Work with the senior analytics engineer to determine how best to implement analytics in-game, given the requirements

The Essentials

  • Experience in the C++ language

  • Strong quantitative, analytical and problem-solving skills

  • Genuine interest in writing code that’s clean and clear

  • Great communication skills, especially through remote-oriented tools like Slack or Zoom

  • Passion for learning and growing; asking for help when you need it

The Nice to Haves

  • Experience with UnrealEngine4.

  • Experience with mobile platform languages like Objective-C or Java

How We Get Things Done…

This last bit is probably the most important! Here at WBD, our guiding principles are the core values by which we operate and are central to how we get things done. You can find them at www.wbd.com/guiding-principles/ along with some insights from the team on what they mean and how they show up in their day to day. We hope they resonate with you and look forward to discussing them during your interview.
