Full-Stack Unreal Engine 5 Developer

Job ID: 40266988

Budget: $3,000 – $5,000 USD

Looking for Full-Stack Unreal Engine 5 Developer (Multiplayer Farming Survival Game)

We’re looking for an experienced Unreal Engine 5 developer to join our project. This will be a multiplayer game built in UE5 with a farming/management core loop and wave-based enemy attacks at night.

The concept in short:

Multiplayer (online)

Farming & resource management system

Base/stable management mechanics

Every night, AI enemies attack in waves

Core gameplay will be built on top of an existing ready-made kit (we will provide it)

Level design will be handled separately by another team member

We only need development for specific requested systems and features (not a full game from scratch)

What we’re looking for:

Strong experience with Unreal Engine 5

Solid understanding of multiplayer architecture (replication, authority, RPCs, sessions, etc.)

Comfortable working with an existing framework/kit and extending it

Experience with AI behavior systems (Behavior Trees, AI Controllers, wave systems)

Clean Blueprint structure (C++ knowledge is a plus but not mandatory)

Ability to write scalable and well-organized gameplay systems

Scope of work:

You won’t be building the entire game. The base kit will already handle a large part of the core systems. We will provide clear documentation about which modules/features need to be developed or customized (e.g., wave system logic, farming mechanics improvements, server-side logic adjustments, etc.).

This is a serious long-term project. We’re building something structured and expandable, not a small prototype.

If you’re interested, please send:

Portfolio or past UE5 multiplayer projects

Your experience with similar systems (farming, survival, wave defense, etc.)

Estimated availability (hours per week)

Looking forward to working with someone reliable and technically strong.
