SOFTWARE ENGINEER - UNITY
At Latent we strive to reinvent how games are made using cutting-edge AI. We are currently building the next generation, real-time and physics-based animation technology for virtual worlds, which we believe has the potential to transform the industry. To get there, we are solving some of the most interesting and beautiful problems in the field.​
​
You are a junior to senior, London-based software engineer who knows how game engines work and, specifically, how Unity works. You are also not afraid to dig down and hack it if necessary. Additionally, you have experience or knowledge of how to deliver a product in Unity that is not necessarily a game. You have experience working with software in general and feel confident leading a project.
​
You've also likely had some experience with physics-based games and character animation. You may also have played around with machine learning code at some point.
​
You will help prototype experiences and games dogfooding our technology. Creativity is very important for this role.
​
Also, you pride yourself in being a generalist, and you are curious and capable to learn about anything.
If you don't fit perfectly in this description, but you are driven, knowledgeable and you think you can do what it takes, then we would love to hear from you as well.
