The opportunity

Unity Engine is used by millions of creators around the world to build powerful and engaging real-time experiences. At the heart of this is graphics, from the initial point of content creation down to the final pixels on the target device.

The Mesh team is on a mission to build and improve Unity's mesh foundations and technologies. The team maintains, designs and develops features ranging from the data representation of meshes, to mesh rendering and common mesh deformations such as skinning and blend shapes. Unity handles a wide variety of content, from low poly meshes to very large mesh data sets, all in real-time, across a wide variety of platforms.

We are looking for a Senior Graphics Engineer to join our team. You will design and implement new mesh and mesh deformation technology and help maintain all things related to meshes. You will have the opportunity to contribute to all layers of the Unity Engine: from low level graphics code, to scripting API and user interfaces.

What you’ll be doing

• Design and implement new and maintain existing scalable mesh features and tools in Unity engine for multiple platforms for both game objects and DOTS entities.
• Work on common mesh deformers such as skinning and blendshapes
• Profile, analyze and optimize performance bottlenecks in existing code and testability and stability.
• Collaborate and guide other developers or teams contributing to the Mesh area
• Help steer the direction of a foundational area in Unity

What we’re looking for

• Confirmed programming skills in C/C++ and C#
• Solid understanding of real-time graphics, meshes and mesh deformations
• Strong problem solving skills
• Understanding modern engine systems and rendering architectures
• Ability to collaborate with developers, customers, and leadership, both verbally and via documentation

You might also have

• Experience with geometry processing technology
• Experience with 3D modeling software such as Maya, Blender or Houdini
• Experience with mesh compression and optimization
• Experience with Unity, Unreal, CryEngine or other 3D game engines
• Experience with graphics API's such as DirectX 12, Vulkan or Metal
