  • Collaborate closely with designers, artists, producers, and engineers to translate game ideas into engaging, polished player experiences.
  • Write clean, scalable, and maintainable C# code while applying software engineering best practices and design patterns.
  • Optimize game performance using profiling tools, resolving bottlenecks, crashes, and platform-specific issues.
  • Implement UI systems, animations, visual effects, and gameplay mechanics using Unity components and related tools.
  • Contribute to build pipelines, deployment processes, and continuous improvement of development workflows.
  • Participate in Agile ceremonies, code reviews, and testing processes to ensure high-quality and reliable releases.
Requirements:
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Interactive Media, or equivalent professional experience.
  • 5+ years of experience developing mobile games with Unity, including at least 2 shipped titles with proven production impact.
  • Strong expertise in Unity engine systems such as UI, animations, prefabs, asset management, and audio integration.
  • Advanced C# programming skills with solid understanding of object-oriented programming and software design principles.
  • Experience with both 2D and 3D mobile game development and performance optimization techniques.
  • Familiarity with debugging tools, profiling workflows, and client-server communication (APIs or WebSockets).
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills with experience working in Agile/Scrum environments.
Benefits:
  • Competitive salary package aligned with experience and market standards
  • Remote-first setup with flexible working schedule, supporting a digital nomad-friendly environment
  • Generous paid time off, including additional paid birthday leave
  • UAE visa sponsorship support when applicable
  • Strong focus on learning, development, and career growth opportunities
  • Access to a collaborative, game-focused team culture with high autonomy and ownership
