Senior Software Engineer, AI@Unity

The opportunity

Are you a skilled developer, passionate about helping game developers iterate faster and build better experiences? We want you to join the AI@Unity organization as a Senior Software Engineer to support the Game Simulation product.

At its core, Unity Game Simulation allows developers to continuously evaluate and test their games at scale by leveraging millions of cloud simulations of their game. Games are the most complex pieces of software, and we want to automate the boring parts of game development, whether it's tracking down bugs, or balancing the difficulty progression and in-game economy; so developers can get back to doing what they love: making the game.

Game Simulation is currently in beta , where our early experiments are showing incredible results. In fact, Furyion Games has saved over $80,000 and 600 hours balancing their game using Game Simulation as seen in their case study .

As a member of the team, you would be integral to the day to day development of the Game Simulation package and service, and help drive the future of the product. Whether that's virtual players which use ML-Agents to play the simulations as real players, helping developers get richer data from their simulations, or using machine learning to optimize the game for them. You'll be working directly with customers to ship experimental features, with the goal of productizing them for the masses. We have the opportunity to truly change how developers create games in the future by using cloud simulations, data, and machine learning.

What you'll be doing

• Design, build and maintain Unity Editor and runtime packages by developers and designers during the development process for multiple types of games
• Contribute to the design and architecture of Unity packages across the organization
• Building robust microservices that can scale to millions of games and billions of tests
• Defining API specifications for your services and how to integrate with other Unity services and systems
• Write clean, maintainable production based code and review application and test code
• Document and test your code and related systems used by game developers daily

What we're looking for

• BS/MS Computer Science or equivalent experience with knowledge of mathematics, data structures, and algorithms
• Must have expertise in extending Unity Editor and C#
• Programming experience in one of the following languages: Python, C#, Java, Scala, or C++
• Experience building production-grade microservices
• Expertise in working with large codebases and interfacing with complex systems
• Experience in API design and integrating the backend API’s
• Experience working with public cloud providers like AWS, Azure, or GCP

You might also have

• Proficiency using Unity's Data-Oriented Technology Stack (DOTS)
• Experience building and shipping a game using Unity
• A passion for crafting usable, polished and enjoyable user experiences
