Product summary:

• The Unity Developer will be working directly with the game designers and artists to write game feature code and implementation in Unity. An example of this might be working with a designer to code and implement fishing in the open world game and discuss with the designer how they envisioned it to feel for the user.
• This product is for PC VR and Meta Quest – they have to design for mobile because of Quest hardware – they will eventually incorporate the PlayStation platform
• Background in gaming is a major plus because the Unity Developer will be working in a VR open world environment for a real time multiplayer game. Candidates will need to have and understanding of the networking side for multiplayer for server authoritative networking and/or game networking in general.
• The team is also looking for a candidate that has experience with memory optimization. Unity has its own built-in internal tools for optimization and this team is working with customized code. Meta Quest’s memory crashes if 70% full as an example and the team is trying to keep memory usage low and working on memory optimization (this can be taught if a candidate does not have experience in this area).

Main technical areas a candidate needs to be well versed in is with Unity (C# or C) and MYSQL. Background in either gaming or VR is a major plus.
