Job description

Job Summary:
Unity is the world’s leading game engine, powering play for more than 3 billion consumers each month. They are looking for a Principal Mobile App Developer to architect and lead the development of a standalone B2C mobile application that serves as a destination for players to discover new games and earn rewards.
Responsibilities:
• Lead the Architecture: Design and architect the mobile client (iOS/Android) for a greenfield consumer rewards application. You will make the foundational decisions on the tech stack, state management, and app architecture.
• Build the Consumer Experience: Develop highly engaging, gamified UI/UX components—including daily streak mechanics, dynamic offer walls, progress trackers, and real-time wallet balances.
• Integrate at Scale: Connect the consumer app directly into Unity’s backend event-pipelines and ML attribution models (optimizing for expected user value, e.g., E[V] and retention probability.
• Manage Virtual Economies: Architect robust on-device state management that handles virtual currencies, ledger updates, and offline/online syncing without dropping a single transaction.
• Anti-Fraud & Attribution: Work alongside our ML and backend teams to implement secure, tamper-proof event tracking to prevent device farming and exploit loops.
• Technical Leadership: Mentor senior mobile engineers, set the standard for code quality, and define the CI/CD and release pipelines for a high-frequency update cycle.
Qualifications:
Required:
• 8+ years of experience building native (Swift/Kotlin) or high-performance cross-platform (React Native/Flutter) consumer mobile applications at scale.
• Proven track record building apps with high DAU/MAU that rely on gamification, loyalty programs, or fintech/wallet features.
• Deep understanding of modern mobile architecture patterns (MVVM, Clean Architecture, VIPER), memory management, and performance profiling.
• Experience handling complex asynchronous data streams, real-time websocket connections, and local persistence for offline-first capabilities.
• You care deeply about micro-interactions, animations, and how an app feels in the user's hands.
Preferred:
• Previous experience at a pure-play consumer rewards company (e.g., Mistplay, Fetch, Ibotta, JustPlay) or a consumer fintech app with heavy gamification.
• Familiarity with mobile attribution platforms (AppsFlyer, Adjust, Singular) and how playtime/event milestones are tracked under the hood.
• A passion for mobile gaming and an understanding of what drives player retention.
Company:
Unity [NYSE: U] offers a suite of tools to create, market, and grow games and interactive experiences across all major platforms from mobile, PC, and console, to extended reality. Founded in 2004, the company is headquartered in San Francisco, USA, with a team of 5001-10000 employees. The company is currently Late Stage.
