Develop the tools for creators to build incredible things
Developing the Unity platform means designing, building, testing, and maintaining new features and products that enable artists, designers and developers to create rich and interactive content that can be enjoyed on any platform. At Unity, we are driving the future of how content is created and experienced.
We are looking for a Development Manager to join the PC/Mac Creator project on the Consumer team. Our goal is to help make game creation accessible to all gamers who want to become creators, not just those who code! Unity sees an opportunity to provide more creative capabilities to millions of people creating content on their desktop and laptop devices with easy-to-pick-up tools and templates offered in a compelling gameplay-focused application.
In this role, you will oversee the development of our PC/Mac platform gameplay-based products. You will guide, mentor, coach and grow an outstanding technical team to deliver fun, retentive gameplay with tools anyone can pick up and use. You will work closely with product, design and other engineering groups to prototype, polish and release products that delight and amaze our customers.
What you’ll be doing
- Promote psychological safety within the team, inclusion and a positive culture of collaboration
- Drive day to day execution by using Lean and Agile methodologies, and motivating your team by explaining how their work relates to the wider business context
- Build and drive a culture of innovation, collaboration and accountability
- Recruit and support the growth of developers on the team through individual mentorship
- Encourage sharing of lessons learned and innovations on procedures and tools to improve efficiencies and deliver success
What we're looking for
- Strong technical background in the development of real-time interactive applications (games, simulations, scientific visualization, architecture, manufacturing, etc.)
- Experience in shipping multiple games or other real-time applications, including a solid understanding of software development lifecycles
- Comfortable leading a team of software developers across multiple locations
- Comfortable when it comes to interacting and explaining ideas to customers and executives that don’t possess a technical background
- Desire to work in a team, learn from others, and help others to learn
You might also have
- Experience building and shipping games made with Unity
- Previous experience in UI/UX design and building user interfaces with accessibility in mind
