The opportunity
At Unity, we're shaping the future of real-time 3D technology by building AI to transform how games are created and experienced. From intelligent authoring tools to new ways of interacting with content, we're engineering the next generation of pipelines that make 3D game development faster, more immersive, and more efficient.

You'll establish cross-team standards for infrastructure and deployments, build a trustworthy A/B testing framework, manage software releases with client-server compatibility in mind, and drive observability across system health and business metrics. The systems you build will span high-level architecture down to hands-on implementation, powering asset generation, LLM inference, and the ML-driven tools that bring AI-assisted game creation to life.
