Frontend Systems Engineer - Unity
Role Overview
We are seeking a skilled Frontend Unity Engineer to join the Software Engineering team on a physical Operations Technology (OT) integration project. In this role, you will design and build immersive 3D visualizations, digital twin interfaces, and geospatial systems that bridge real-world operational environments with software platforms. You will collaborate closely with cross-functional engineering teams to deliver production-grade solutions that are scalable, performant, and aligned to mission-critical business needs.
Key Details
Role Title: Frontend Unity Engineer
Employment Type: Full-Time / Contract
Domain: Operations Technology (OT) Integration, Digital Twin, Geospatial Systems
Seniority: Senior / Lead
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the design and development of interactive 3D visualization interfaces using Unity 3D, including real-time digital twin dashboards and OT operational views.
- Architect and implement geospatial rendering systems — integrating map layers, coordinate systems and spatial data into Unity-based frontends.
- Design and deliver seamless integration between Unity frontend components and backend systems, middleware, IoT/OT data pipelines, and REST/WebSocket APIs.
- Collaborate with IoT, OT, and robotics engineering teams to translate telemetry, sensor, and asset data into real-time 3D visualization.
- Drive technical decisions around rendering performance, level-of-detail (LOD) strategies, shader optimization, and scene management for large-scale operational environments.
- Build and maintain reusable UI component libraries within Unity, aligned to UX guidelines and design system standards.
- Define and enforce frontend engineering standards, coding conventions, and review practices across the software engineering team.
- Engage with product owners, systems architects, and client stakeholders to ensure frontend solutions meet functional and non-functional requirements.
- Contribute to CI/CD pipeline integration for Unity build artefacts, automated testing, and deployment workflows.
- Must be comfortable leveraging AI Tools to accelerate coding, testing and validation.
Technical Requirements
Advantageous Skills
- Experience with geospatial platforms such as Unity, Mapbox, ArcGIS, or QGIS.
- Familiarity with robotics middleware (e.g. ROS/ROS2) or OT protocols (OPC-UA, MODBUS, MQTT).
- Exposure to AI/ML inference integration within Unity (e.g. Barracuda, ONNX Runtime, or Claude AI APIs).
- Knowledge of BIM data formats (IFC, Revit) and their integration into Unity digital twin environments.
- Experience with cloud deployment on AWS GCC2.0, Azure, or GCP environments.
Experience & Qualifications
- Minimum 5 years of software engineering experience, with at least 3 years focused on Unity 3D development in a production environment.
- Demonstrated delivery of Digital Twin or 3D visualization solutions for operational, industrial, or smart city domains.
- Hands-on experience integrating real-time IoT/OT sensor data into interactive 3D or geospatial frontends.
- Track record as a subject matter expert and technical lead — driving architecture decisions, conducting code reviews, and managing delivery risk.
- Strong understanding of systems engineering principles; able to design frontend components with awareness of full-stack integration constraints.
- Bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Geospatial Science, or equivalent discipline.
Behavioral Competencies
- Strong analytical mindset — able to decompose complex technical challenges into pragmatic, deliverable solutions.
- Collaborative team player with the ability to work across OT, IT, and business stakeholder groups.
- Effective communicator — translates technical concepts clearly to non-technical audiences.
- Takes ownership of team outcomes; proactively identifies and mitigates delivery risks.
- Committed to continuous improvement — stays current with Unity ecosystem developments, geospatial tooling, and digital twin industry practices.
