The Role
Creative Assembly’s Total War Infrastructure Team is seeking a Senior Build Tools Engineer to drive technical improvements and contribute to the architecture of our build systems, toolchain, CI and automated testing infrastructure that supports all Total War development teams.
This is a high-impact role. Your work will directly influence developer productivity, CI stability, build cadence, automation reliability and the studio’s ability to deliver multiple large-scale projects in parallel across multiple platforms. We are looking for someone who not only delivers but also drives technical priorities, someone who can see where the platform needs to evolve and make those changes happen.
You will work closely with build engineers, tools programmers, test automation teams, IT, QA and multiple game teams across the studio. As a senior engineer, you will be expected to lead initiatives, shape technical standards,
mentor others and act as a point of escalation for complex issues across the infrastructure space.
This is a hybrid role. We’re looking for someone who can be in the Horsham studio 1–2 days per week to collaborate closely with the team and stay connected to on-site workflows.
What you’ll be doing
On a day-to-day basis, you will:
• Own and drive the evolution of CA’s multi-project build pipelines, including pre- submit, post-submit, scheduled tests, console and PC workflows.
• Define and drive improvements in CI reliability, error detection, logging standards and quality guardrails in CI.
• Strengthen the development and reliability of deployment pipelines that deliver builds to internal teams, QA and external platforms, ensuring consistent and repeatable releases across all target destinations.
• Design, build and maintain backend services such as build storage infrastructure, symbol servers, archiving systems and dashboar
