Job Description:

We are seeking a versatile Game Developer who thrives at the intersection of robust application architecture and immersive gameplay. You aren’t just a "coder"—you are an architect who knows how to leverage Artificial Intelligence to streamline development, enhance NPC behaviors, and build smarter, more responsive systems.

The ideal candidate is a polymath who can transition seamlessly from building a functional UI framework to fine-tuning the physics of a character’s double-jump. Your mission is to move beyond static scripts, using LLMs, Generative AI, and Procedural Content Generation (PCG) to create living, breathing digital worlds. If you are a Unity expert who thinks in systems and dreams in AI-driven possibilities, we want you at the table.

Requirements:

1. Gameplay Engineering & Mechanical Design

• Core Logic: Design and maintain high-performance game logic using Unity (C#), ensuring a rock-solid foundation for feature expansion.

• Mechanics Prototyping: Rapidly prototype and polish core loops—from complex combat systems and inventory management to branchable progression trees.

• Physics & Feel: Script character controllers and state machines that prioritize "game feel," ensuring responsive and intuitive player movement.

2. AI Integration & Workflow Automation

• Smarter NPCs: Integrate AI tools (LLMs, OpenAI/Anthropic APIs) to enhance NPC dialogue, behavior trees, and world-building.

• Procedural Content: Use AI for Procedural Content Generation (PCG) to create vast, varied environments and assets without manual overhead.

• Operational AI: Implement AI-driven internal workflows to optimize coding, debugging, and asset pipeline efficiency.

3. Systems Architecture & Cross-Platform Reliability

• Scalable Back-end: Build robust systems for data handling, cloud services (Firebase/AWS), and RESTful API integrations.

• Performance Profiling: Optimize games for cross-platform deployment (PC, Mobile, Console), ensuring high frame rates and low memory footprints.

• Clean Architecture: Apply OOP principles and design patterns (Singleton, Factory, Observer) to maintain a decoupled and testable codebase.

Qualifications and Skills:

Technical Requirements

Bonus Points For:

• Experience with Machine Learning frameworks (PyTorch/TensorFlow).

• Knowledge of HLSL/Shaders, VFX, and advanced performance profiling.

• A portfolio showcasing both a published game and a functional utility app.
