Senior Software Development Consultant

The Unity Customer Success Consulting team is a group of highly skilled Software Developers, Designers, and Technical Artists with deep expertise in the Unity platform, whose main goal is to help our customers improve their projects and internal workflows and assist them in resolving complex challenges. To do this, we provide a series of short- and long-term consulting services that can range from 1 week to 3 months and beyond.

We're looking for passionate, motivated people who want to share their expertise with other developers and help them achieve their goals. Our customer base spans the video games, media and entertainment (M&E), Automotive, and manufacturing industries. If you're technically skilled, customer-focused, and excited to step into challenges that constantly expand the boundaries of your comfort zone, this job will suit you.

This position involves visiting our customers and, by collaborating directly with their technical leaders, helping them optimise their projects and workflows while also educating them on best practices. Our team is tasked with resolving challenging problems that require expertise in the Unity platform, which only Unity can provide.

Over time, you'll become an established technical expert within Unity. You can pursue opportunities including personal research, speaking at conferences, delivering training to customers and colleagues, and guiding Unity's direction by providing feedback and advice to our R&D teams.

This role may involve periodic travel to customers and other Unity offices, primarily within Europe and usually during weekdays. You will be asked to travel up to 30% of the time, depending on your interests and responsibilities.

• Communicate findings and best practices clearly through consultations, written reports, and technical guidance.
• Collaborate with Unity’s internal development and R&D teams, feeding back real-world customer needs to influence product direction.

What we're looking for

• Advanced skills in C# or C++ within large, multithreaded codebases using a real-time, multi-platform engine (e.g. Unity, Unreal, or in-house).
• Ability to profile, analyse, and optimise performance across CPU, GPU, memory, and architecture in real-time applications.
• Track record of shipping real-time interactive applications or games, including a solid understanding of software development lifecycles and ownership of end-to-end development tasks.
• Ability to investigate and resolve complex technical issues in existing codebases and projects, both remotely and on-site.
• Strong communication skills with fluency in English, including producing clearly written technical reports and explaining solutions to mixed-discipline technical teams.

You might also have

• Experience delivering technical training, workshops, or conference talks
• Experience writing technical articles, guides, or in-depth documentation
• Deep graphics programming knowledge, including shader development
• Familiarity with video games, media & entertainment, or manufacturing use cases
