Unity Network Engineer

Responsibilities:

• Test network functionality of a Unity-based multiplayer game under various conditions (low/high ping, packet loss, unstable connections, etc.).
• Identify, reproduce, and document edge-case scenarios in networking behavior.
• Develop tools for simulating different network conditions.
• Collaborate with QA, Backend, and Game Design teams to ensure multiplayer quality.

• Background of work with Unity Netcode (or Mirror / Photon / other solutions) to monitor stability and performance.

   

Requirements:

• Strong understanding of networking fundamentals (TCP/UDP, NAT, latency, jitter, packet loss).
• Hands-on experience testing networking systems, including handling edge cases.
• Familiarity with tools for simulating poor network conditions (e.g., Clumsy, WANem).

• Solid knowledge of C#, Unity Profiler, and network debugging tools.

   

Nice to Have:

• Knowledge of backend architecture (matchmaking, relay, dedicated servers).
• Familiarity with ECS, DOTS, or Unity Transport Layer.
• Experience developing networked features in Unity (Netcode for GameObjects, Mirror, Photon, etc.).
• Experience with DevOps practices (CI/CD for network testing).
