The opportunity
The Unity Accelerate Solutions Games team is a group of highly skilled Software Development and Technical Art Consultants with deep expertise in the Unity platform! Our goal is to help customers improve their projects and internal workflows and assist them in the resolution of very challenging technical problems. In order to do this, we provide a series of short-term and long-term consulting and development services that can range in duration from one week to eighteen months and beyond.
In Solutions Games, we often need to build detailed specifications and proposals in order to win projects from our prospective customers.
Due to increasing demand from our customers for new engagements built on Unity, we’re looking for a Senior Solutions Architect to join the team. In this role you will learn about the operations of our customers across our core verticals; including Games and Media & Entertainment. You will then be key in either designing innovative solutions that meet their brief or recommending new solutions that improve their core business.

Your day-to-day work will involve working with our Sales Representatives with the assessment of new business opportunities, scoping potential projects, and keeping yourself updated when it comes to the products we offer as part of the Unity ecosystem. You will be helping prepare proposals, responding to RFPs, and supporting the team leads in the pre-sales process. Expect to meet customers at all levels -up to “C” Level- as part of the pre-sales process.
This role may involve periodic travel to customer and other Unity offices, primarily within Europe and usually during week days. You will be asked to travel either very occasionally or up to 30% of the time depending on your interests and responsibilities.

- Create specifications and requirements to tightly scope projects, respond to RFPs and accurately set customers’ expectations for outcomes.
- Collaborate internally with Sales / Business Development, Solutions Engineers, Software Development and Technical Art Consultants and other SMEs to accurately estimate the effort and value of potential projects. Then collaborate with our Engagement Managers to deliver Statements of Work and respond to customer RFPs.
- Constantly train on new and emerging technologies in order to discover new ways to apply them for our clients.
What we're looking for
- Experience developing and shipping software, from initial design through delivery & live operations, on multiple completed projects.
- Experience defining technical specifications & requirements for software projects
- Experience using Unity in a professional environment.
- Excellent verbal & written communication skills in English, and the ability to deliver presentations to clients.
- Ability to travel to customers on a flexible schedule.
You might also have
