Lead Programmer

International Game Developers Association

Jump to: navigation, search

The person in charge of programming a particular project (or projects). On small projects this person also does the lions share (or all) of the coding. They are (ultimately) held responsible for engine quality and they also work with the PM/Producer & Game Designers in forecasting the schedule. A variation you see sometimes is “Lead Graphics Programmer” where you have “subleads” for different areas of programming on a large team.
