Software Engineer – Unity, VR and AI Integration (offline)

About Us
Our mission is to make learning accessible, relevant, and individualized to keep up with the changing world. We are developing a personalized virtual trainer experience, integrating generative AI and learning engineering to build a VR "flight simulator" for immersive hands-on skills training. Our learning engineering approach customizes content and feedback in real time, directly improving learning outcomes.

We are looking for a full-stack Unity engineer to build a communication infrastructure between the VR application and the cloud and to integrate the AI technologies within the VR application. To be successful, you have to be excited by the fast-paced environment of a start-up, enjoy a dynamic and agile atmosphere, and possess a versatile set of technical skills. If you are passionate about leveraging technology to improve education and training outcomes and have a vision for how VR can transform learning experiences, we would love to hear from you.

The Role
This important position requires an uncommon blend of technical expertise in Unity development and integration with cloud services as well as a collaborative spirit. As a full-stack engineer, you will enable the flow of data from the virtual environment as well as implement intuitive communication between the users with this environment, both critical to our learning platform.

Key Responsibilities:
- Design and build robust communication infrastructures between the VR application and cloud platforms to support off-line and real-time data exchange, ensuring seamless flow of user interaction data for personalized learning experiences.
- Integrate advanced speech recognition and synthesis capabilities within the VR app, enabling it to understand user utterances, and to communicate with the backend to provide responses to the users.
- Set up and maintain the infrastructure required for processing understood speech utterances through a large language model connected to a knowledge base, facilitating accurate and contextually relevant answers to user queries.
- Collaborate closely with the cross-functional team, including learning and data scientists, VR engineers and designers, and content experts to align technical solutions with educational goals.
- Stay current with the latest developments in AI technology and cloud computing to continually enhance the platform's capabilities.

Qualifications:
- Proven experience in full-stack development, with proficiency in Unity and cloud computing platforms. VR development experience is preferred but not required.
- Expertise in integrating a user facing application with backend and cloud services using SDKs and APIs. Experience with Meta Quest SDK is preferred but not required.
- Strong programming skills in C#, Python, or similar languages relevant to Unity development and data handling.
- Demonstrated ability to work with cloud storage and computing services (AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob Storage) for data logging database management.
- Pl Strong communication skills with a working command of English, with an experience working in or with teams from different cultural backgrounds, with an understanding of cross-cultural communication dynamics.
- Proactive, self-motivated individual capable of managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced, remote environment.

What We Offer:
- An opportunity to build a product from the ground up and contribute to its growth.
- An important role that empowers you to influence the decisions, architecture, and product implementation.
