Collaboration and Best Practices:

• Work closely with cross-functional teams to ensure cohesive, high-quality scenarios.
• Maintain technical consistency, scalability, and maintainability of levels and scenario structures.

Required Skills and Qualifications:

• BS degree or higher in Game Design, Computer Science, or similar technical majors.
• Unity Proficiency: Extensive knowledge of the Unity Editor (prefabs, scene management, ScriptableObjects, etc.) and experience implementing levels/scenarios, including level design and level editing.
• Game Scenario Design: Familiarity with greyboxing, asset placement, scripting events, basic AI, and interactive storytelling.
• C# Scripting: Ability to write robust, efficient, and maintainable code for both gameplay and Editor tools.
• Debugging & Optimization: Experience using Unity’s Profiler or similar tools to profile and optimize runtime performance and Editor workflows.
• Version Control: Comfortable using Git, Plastic SCM (Unity Version Control), or similar systems; preference for Plastic SCM experience.

Preferred Qualifications

• 3+ years of professional Unity experience focused on both level design and C# scripting.
• Proven ability to create custom Editor extensions and tooling to enhance team productivity.
• Strong understanding of gameplay systems architecture and data-driven design.
• Experience debugging gameplay and Editor issues using Unity’s Profiler or equivalent
