Description & Requirements

Electronic Arts creates next-level entertainment experiences that inspire players and fans around the world. Here, everyone is part of the story. Part of a community that connects across the globe. A place where creativity thrives, new perspectives are invited, and ideas matter. A team where everyone makes play happen.

We’re looking for a Software Engineer to join our GenAI/ML initiatives for FC Mobile, helping build practical, production-ready tools that speed up game development. You’ll work with our Technical Director and game teams to prototype, integrate, and harden LLM-powered features that improve designer/artist workflows—while bringing a verification-engineer mindset to testing, reliability, and performance. A strong passion for game development is essential; deep ML/GenAI research experience is optional. You should be comfortable shipping software, writing tests, and using modern GenAI/LLM services in real products.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build and iterate LLM/GenAI-powered features and internal tools under guidance, focusing on web apps and game team workflows.
  • Integrate AI features via REST/GraphQL APIs and SDKs; wire up frontend components and backend endpoints; demo and document for users.
  • Write and maintain tests (unit/integration/E2E) and simple evaluation scripts to verify quality, latency, and guardrails.
  • Add basic observability (logs, metrics) and help triage bugs and incidents with senior engineers.
  • Collaborate with designers, artists, and engineers to gather requirements, run small experiments, and incorporate feedback quickly.
  • Contribute to CI/CD and code quality (linting, formatting, code reviews) for AI-assisted tools and services.

Qualifications

Must Have

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field, or equivalent hands-on experience.
  • 2–4 years of software engineering experience in either web application/full‑stack or video game application development; you identify as a development engineer (not primarily a data engineer/scientist).
  • Hands-on experience building applications that use LLM/GenAI services (e.g., calling GPT-class APIs, basic prompt/response handling, context assembly, simple retrieval), ideally shipped to real users.
  • Verification mindset: experience writing unit/integration tests, setting up CI, and validating functional/performance/latency requirements for tooling or web services.
  • Basic cloud/devops skills: containerization (Docker), deploying to a cloud platform (AWS/GCP/Azure/Vercel), and adding logs/metrics/alerts.
  • Clear communication and documentation skills; ability to explain AI tool behavior and limitations to non-technical stakeholders.

Nice to Have

  • Exposure to basics of RAG, embeddings, vector databases, and prompt engineering for production use.
  • Familiarity with TypeScript/Node.js for tooling, or C# for engine/editor plugins.
  • Experience with cloud services (AWS/GCP/Azure), containerization (Docker), and infrastructure-as-code for deploying AI tooling.
  • Interest in model evaluation, offline/online A/B testing, and telemetry-driven iteration.
