Strong proficiency with Unity and C#, with deep understanding of gameplay development workflows, debugging, and optimization. Solid grasp of game systems design and implementation, including physics, animation integration, abilities, and player control. Ability to collaborate effectively with non-technical stakeholders (design, art, production), translating creative vision into robust technical solutions. Proactive problem solver who anticipates gameplay challenges and advocates for player experience and quality throughout development. Broad technical awareness across systems (networking, performance, tools) that impact gameplay in both single-player and multiplayer contexts. Bonus Points Hands-on experience with Photon Quantum or Entity Component Systems (ECS) in production environments. Experience developing real-time multiplayer gameplay systems. Background in designing or implementing level scripting tools or pipelines. Familiarity with free-to-play mechanics and live game development.
