Senior Unity XR Developer specializing in networked VR/MR collaboration

Remote, Germany10y exp

“Unity/VR developer who has shipped a Meta Quest enterprise multiplayer immersive meeting platform (Arthur Spaces) and also delivered a puzzle/quest-style Unity game release in just one month. Leverages AI-assisted Blender workflows to rapidly prototype 3D assets and accelerate MVP development, and is comfortable in both structured studio pipelines and startup-style cross-functional teams.”

“Unity/VR engineer with nearly 15 years of experience, specializing in multiplayer architecture, cross-platform systems, and developer tooling. He built and shipped a reusable Unity Netcode-based multiplayer stack with authentication, matchmaking, Vivox voice chat, and custom host migration that reportedly improved development speed by 70% to 80%, and has also supported releases across Meta Quest, consoles, and mobile-related ecosystems.”

“Unity VR developer with hands-on experience shipping and optimizing standalone builds for Meta Quest (and PICO). Led gameplay + networking on a Quest 3 multiplayer social VR experience (real-time sync, avatars/gestures, proximity voice), and also built a mostly solo game that blends fast-paced restaurant simulation with a night-time horror/stealth loop featuring custom AI.”

Junior Game Developer specializing in gameplay systems and cross-engine development

Lenexa, KS3y exp

“Game-focused QA tester with a developer background who routinely validates builds in player-like environments (including VMs), documents test coverage rigorously, and provides high-signal bug reports with reproducible steps and video evidence. Has partnered closely with designers and engineers on issues like level-loading resource management and prioritizes defects based on player progression and immersion impact; has not shipped a AAA title.”

“Brazil-based lead designer/animator specializing in high-polish marketing creative and scalable motion systems. Led localized multi-channel campaign assets for TIDAL Brazil and built template/rig frameworks to deliver a full season of children’s animation, with a template-driven workflow for rapid short-form social video production in After Effects/Premiere/DaVinci.”

“Robotics software engineer with experience spanning safety-critical embedded medical hardware (low-cost neonatal baby warmer with PID temperature regulation) and advanced multi-robot planning research (belief-space planning with abstraction + MCTS to handle uncertainty). Strong ROS/ROS2 practitioner (Nav2/SLAM Toolbox/MoveIt) who builds custom packages (e.g., Insta360 panoramic imaging) and is hands-on debugging real robots from SLAM/frontier exploration to multi-robot collision avoidance and real-time performance.”

“Unity developer with hands-on Meta Quest SDK experience (tested on Quest 2) who built a first-person game framework from scratch and later converted it into a hybrid VR + keyboard/mouse project with interaction systems (pickups, weapons, customization). Uses AI tools selectively to unblock tough engineering issues, including resolving Unity WebGL cached-data reset problems for a current employer.”

“Unity gameplay programmer with practical performance optimization experience (object pooling for shooting mechanics) and extensive Photon-based multiplayer work across diverse genres including shooters, sports, and board games (e.g., ludo, chess, air hockey, snakes and ladders). Uses AI tools to accelerate development, including generating and implementing multiple effects programmatically in a single day under deadline pressure.”

“Game VFX artist with shipped effects for major entertainment racing and platformer titles (Nickelodeon, Dreamworks, Hot Wheels, Disney) across mobile/web and multi-platform releases. Describes a full production workflow from GDD-driven planning and Photoshop concepts through Unity/Unreal shader + particle setup, code implementation, and testing, with a strong focus on real-time optimization (including Switch constraints) and AI-assisted concept/texture workflows.”

“Unity technical designer/game developer who improves engagement and retention through KPI-driven analysis and live-ops tuning (e.g., early-game energy/progression adjustments and time-based targeted礼包 pushes). Built a Python-based visual map/level editor that exports CSV to replace error-prone manual coordinate entry, saving significant team time and remaining reusable across later projects.”

“Unity gameplay/tech-art oriented developer who implemented the main third-person controller, animation, and combat feel for a game, including a sophisticated two-character synced-animation pipeline built in Autodesk MotionBuilder (leader/follower with syncing bones for perfect alignment). Has some Unity networking experience with Photon Bolt on a vehicle-MOBA project, syncing combat abilities while optimizing network data, and uses AI coding agents (KILO + Gemini) to navigate large codebases faster.”

“Unity/C# developer with hands-on Meta Quest shipping experience from Wren Kitchens, building a VR kitchen scale visualiser and solving tricky URP/HDRP cross-pipeline rendering issues by creating internal shader/asset management utilities. Also has solo Unity game experience including an Android/Google Play release and game jam prototyping, plus side-project work using Python/PyTorch for predictive modeling.”

“Built and deployed an LLM product called "Content Craft" combining BART-based summarization with a RAG Q&A chatbot using LangChain, embeddings, and a vector database. Has hands-on MLOps experience containerizing and serving models with FastAPI and running them on Kubernetes with monitoring, self-healing, and autoscaling, and has practical experience reducing hallucinations through structured prompting.”

“Marketing/concert-event creative designer who leads end-to-end production of cohesive campaign looks (key art, sponsor-integrated assets, and animated promo pieces). Works fully remotely and collaborates closely with sponsors plus Sales/Concerts teams to iterate quickly while keeping work on-brand, and scales output via master files/templates across many deliverable sizes.”

“Game designer/technical designer with hands-on Unreal Engine 5 Blueprint implementation, specializing in horde/wave modes, spawn systems, and live-service progression/economy. Shipped a limited-time Horde Event Mode under a ~6-week constraint by reusing existing content and focusing on systemic tuning (pacing, spawn budgeting, difficulty curves), reporting improved engagement/retention and reduced early drop-off.”

“Game designer with shipped live-event hub/minigame experience (Club Blox) integrating economy/UGC, UI timing, and playtest-driven clarity improvements; successfully navigated a major client pivot by reusing assets and restructuring gameflow to ship on time. Also has level design experience on Plants vs. Zombies 3 (Lava Biome/hybrid mechanics) and rapidly prototypes accessible gameplay systems in Unreal Engine 5 using Blueprints.”

“Unity mobile game developer with ~1 year as Unity Lead, focused on implementing meta mechanics and UI while collaborating closely with design/UX and backend. Has hands-on ownership of iOS porting and App Store build/release management, plus experience onboarding and mentoring two junior programmers. No shipped VR/Meta Quest titles yet, but interested in leveraging AI tools like ChatGPT to speed up development.”

“Game developer with ~10 years in studios and 4 published titles, experienced shipping Unity VR/XR projects across Oculus, Samsung Odyssey, and Microsoft XR headsets. Demonstrates deep optimization expertise (progressive 3D loading with LODs and headset view-angle culling) and a hybrid profile spanning systems engineering, UI/UX implementation, and tech-art optimization, plus small-team/project leadership and cross-functional communication.”
