Software Developer

Are you an experienced Programmer of game content in Unity 3D? Are you seeking an opportunity that allows you to work at the cutting edge of technology, with a business that is leading the way in Virtual environments?

A rapidly growing business that designs and manufactures a diverse range of immersive solutions for a number of different sectors and works on a global basis is seeking an additional programmer to join its growing Software Applications & Development team.

You will assist the team to develop Unity based content for large immersive environments.

Individuals who are looking to develop games for PC/single screen formats should not apply to this role as this will be working on a very different scale. The content you create will be presented to a range of businesses and technology leaders and provide an excellent platform for your skills.

You will be working with an excellent team in an industry leading organisation that embraces innovation and continually pushes the boundaries in this field.

Contractors or permanent applicants will be considered for this role as your skills in coding on Unity are what is sought rather than a particular employment preference. Salary/Pay rates will match experience, however this is not a role suitable for people with no previous working experience of developing Unity based content in a business/professional capacity.

Applicants without the relevant Unity development experience in a work environment will not be considered.

DUTIES INCLUDE:

- Software design and development
- Application feature updates and bug fixing
- Researching and examining current and new systems and solutions
- Requirements capture of new solutions
- Writing software and operating manuals
- Product testing
- Teaching/Coaching and upskilling other staff members

Successful applicants will be:

- Competent in developing on Unity 3D, ideally in a games focussed role
- From a Computer Science/Software Engineering background
- Aware of and be able to demonstrate an understanding of software development practices (versioning, reviews, development life cycles etc.)
- Knowledgeable to an appropriate standard in mathematics
- Experienced in 3D graphics such as Unity, OpenGL, DirectX, Unreal Engine, Cry Engine, OGRE, etc
- A logical thinker, skilled in problem solving and analysis
- Resourceful

Additionally, any experience of the following will be a distinct advantage:

- Embedded Hardware programming experience
- Video streaming or processing experience such as AR and markerless tracking
- Experience in implementing network communication layers
- 3D modelling experience (Blender, Maya, 3DS MAX)
- Relational database design and development skills
- Virtual Reality/Augmented Reality knowledge

You will be working with a growing, innovative organisation that rewards excellence in its employees. You will have the opportunity to have significant input into recommendations offered to clients and will be expected to contribute to the company's future growth creating state-of-the art VR solutions.
