The opportunity
Unity is the world’s leading platform for creating and operating real-time 3D (RT3D) content. Beyond gaming, Unity is emerging as a premier Simulation Engine for the industrial sector. Our technology allows companies to design, test, and train autonomous systems in virtual environments, long before they hit the factory floor. By leveraging Unity for Synthetic Data Generation (SDG) and simulation, our customers can accelerate development cycles and reduce the cost of robotics innovation at scale.
In this high-impact role, you will lead Unity’s Robotics and Industrial strategy, shaping how developers and engineers build, train, and manage the next generation of autonomous systems. You will own the product roadmap for this vertical, acting as the "connective tissue" between our engineering teams and the industrial market. This role requires a leader who can drive results across many groups, leveraging a data-oriented mindset to ensure our offerings provide measurable value to our customers.
What You'll Be Doing
At Unity, we want our team members to thrive. We offer a wide range of benefits designed to support well-being and work-life balance.
Please note: Benefits eligibility, specific offerings, and coverage vary based on the country and employment status.
While specific benefits vary, here are some of the ways we strive to take care of our eligible team members globally: Comprehensive health, life, and disability insurance | Commute subsidy | Employee stock ownership | Competitive retirement/pension plans | Generous vacation and personal days | Support for new parents through leave and family-care programs | Office food snacks | Mental Health and Wellbeing programs and support | Employee Resource Groups | Global Employee Assistance Program | Training and development programs | Volunteering and donation matching program
