Bring digital characters to life with clean code, smart systems and proper technical thinking.

This growing creative technology studio is looking for a Unity Developer to help build high-quality conversational avatar experiences. The work sits at the point where realtime development, character interaction, AI and user experience all meet.

You'll be creating and maintaining the Unity components, scripts and systems that make digital characters feel responsive, reliable and accessible. This is not just about making something look good on screen. It is about building the technical foundations that allow users to interact with AI-led characters in a smooth, believable and consistent way.

You'll work closely with artists, designers, animators, developers and QA to turn creative ideas into robust technical delivery.

• Building and maintaining Unity components, scripts and plugins for conversational avatar experiences
• Writing clean, efficient and reliable C# code across interaction systems, mechanics and realtime features
• Translating creative and design requirements into clear technical specifications
• Optimising code and assets for performance, memory usage and a smooth user experience

• At least 3 years' professional experience as a Unity Developer
• Strong Unity 3D and C# development skills, with a good understanding of object-oriented programming
• Experience with scripting, physics, interaction systems or realtime mechanics
• Strong problem-solving, debugging and collaboration skills

• Experience with performance optimisation, memory usage and reliable build quality
• Version control experience, ideally PlasticSCM or GitHub
• Good knowledge of mathematics and algorithms relevant to realtime development
• Exposure to C#, Python, Jira, technical animation, rigging, skinning or scripting would all be useful

They're building immersive digital products with a strong focus on character-led experiences, AI, accessibility and responsible innovation. The team is collaborative, creative and technical, so they're looking for someone who can work well across disciplines and take ownership of the code that brings these avatars to life.

If you're a Unity Developer who wants to use your skills on realistic, interactive digital humans rather than traditional gaming projects, this could be a very interesting move.
