At JetBrains, code is our passion. Since 2000, we’ve been building tools that help developers stay focused on what matters -solving problems, exploring ideas, and creating great software.

The Growth team is a key initiative within the .NET and GameDev ecosystem, focused on expanding IDE adoption and strengthening JetBrains’ position among professional development teams. As part of this team, Solution Architects are senior technical experts who work closely with key customers, internal teams, and the broader ecosystem to support complex use cases and drive long-term adoption.

You’ll play a key role in shaping how professional game development studios adopt JetBrains tools in real production environments - helping teams solve complex problems, improve workflows, and build better games.

About the role

As a Solution Architect for GameDev Tools, you’ll act as a trusted technical advisor to game development studios using JetBrains tools, primarily Rider.

This is a senior, non-sales role focused on deep technical engagement, high-impact customer scenarios, and long-term relationships with professional studios. You’ll work at the intersection of real-world production environments and product development, helping teams adopt modern workflows and get the most out of their tooling.

What you’ll do

• Work closely with game development studios as a technical expert on Rider and GameDev workflows
• Investigate complex technical challenges beyond typical support scope, including performance, debugging, IDE integration, and workflow issues
• Validate advanced use cases such as large Unity and Unreal projects, custom engine setups, CI/build pipelines, and competitive evaluations
• Act as a bridge between studios and internal teams, including Growth, Sales, and product teams
• Provide actionable product feedback based on real-world production environments
• Design and deliver technical workshops, demos, training sessions, and sample projects
• Share insights, best practices, and competitive knowledge with internal teams
• Occasionally travel for key onsite engagements, workshops, or industry events

What we’re looking for

• Strong professional experience in game development using Unity, Unreal Engine, or in-house engines
• Background in AAA or large-scale production environments, with a solid understanding of studio structures and workflows
• Deep knowledge of the full game development lifecycle, from prototyping to live operations
• Experience working with large, long-lived codebases and complex runtime environments
• Strong skills in debugging, performance optimization, profiling, and memory management
• Ability to work effectively with senior engineers, technical directors, and engineering leadership
• Established presence in the GameDev industry, with the ability to build long-term professional relationships
• Hands-on experience with JetBrains tools and the ability to demonstrate their value in real workflows
• Experience creating technical content such as demos, presentations, or workshops
• Strong customer focus and communication skills
• Fluency in English

Nice to have

• Experience in roles such as Solution Architect, Technical Consultant, Developer Advocate, or similar
• Deep knowledge of engine internals or performance-critical systems
• Experience with C++ and managed-to-native interoperability
• Familiarity with console development and platform-specific constraints
• Experience in large distributed or multi-studio environments
• Background in building developer tools, custom editors, or IDE plugins
• Public speaking experience at conferences or technical events
• Experience in adjacent fields such as simulation or virtual production
• Understanding of AI-assisted development and tools like JetBrains AI, GitHub Copilot, or similar
• Ability to clearly explain AI capabilities, limitations, and trade-offs

Why join JetBrains? 

• Strong base salary. We offer competitive pay that reflects your skills and experience.
• Flexible work location. Enjoy the freedom to work from home or from the office.

JetBrains creates tools that make professional software development a more productive and enjoyable experience for programmers worldwide.

Our .NET and game dev tools include ReSharper (an extension for Microsoft Visual Studio and VS Code-like editors), Rider (a standalone cross-platform .NET and game dev IDE), and a family of profilers and code coverage tools, including dotCover, dotMemory, dotTrace, and dotPeek. Marketing such a diverse family of tools is challenging, as it combines working with huge enterprises and small game dev studios, promoting a mature product together with its up-and-coming younger siblings, and driving the adoption of IDEs for daily use along with specialized profiling tools that users launch only a few times a year.

We create tons of content that serves marketing, educational, and promotional goals. Our dedicated team of developer advocates, technical writers, and marketing specialists collaborates with product developers to work on concise and useful guides, tutorials, landing pages, printed materials, and other assets.

We are looking for a passionate, creative, and open-minded person with excellent writing, video creation, and speaking skills to join and strengthen our marketing team and help us with content creation.

As part of our team, you will:

• Work closely with the development team, product managers, and product marketing managers to determine the most important features of the product.

• Create content like blog posts, videos, tutorials, screencasts, sample code, livestreams, and more. The content will be a mixture of product promotion with a strong focus on telling the story of how JetBrains products can help developers solve real problems.

• Create, revise, and restructure a wide range of content on our websites, driving demand for the product.

• Teach people how to use technologies and JetBrains tools.

• Analyze the needs of both new and experienced users and help them learn to use the product efficiently.

We will be happy to have you on our team if you have:

• A profound understanding of the software development lifecycle, popular development practices, and the tools used.

• Knowledge of at least one programming language.

• The ability to learn new technologies and grasp concepts quickly.

• Excellent communication skills, especially the ability to tell a compelling story about a technology.

• Fluency in both spoken and written English.

• Attention to detail and a self-motivated approach.

We will be especially thrilled if you have:

• A technical background or experience working in a software development team (especially in the .NET or game development areas).

• Experience working as a content creator or developer advocate.

• Familiarity with JetBrains products.

If you have a portfolio of various content examples, both text and screencasts, please submit it with your application.
