About Us
We are a creative technology studio focused on immersive digital experiences. We collaborate with top-tier professionals in North America to develop innovative projects at the forefront of Virtual Reality and interactive media.
Our team is currently working on a recent VR multiplayer experience built in Unity for Meta Quest platforms, combining engaging gameplay with expressive characters and environments. This project is a flagship initiative within a world-leading VR content ecosystem.
The role
Build the game’s real-time VFX. Particle systems are the core of this role — you author, tune, and optimize effects that read well and stay inside strict VR performance limits. You own your effects from brief to in-game, working autonomously.
Responsibilities
- Author gameplay and environment VFX in Unity’s built-in particle system (Shuriken).
- Work to a hard budget: very low particle counts, opaque / alpha-clipped materials only, 512×512 textures.
- Interpret concept, reference footage, and art direction into finished effects.
- Tune timing, scale, colour,
and emission so effects read clearly in a headset.
- Use shaders and materials to carry visual complexity so particle count stays low.
- Build and maintain reusable VFX setups and texture sheets.
- Test in headset and cut overdraw when effects cost too much.
- Work with 3D, Design, and Dev on effect hookup and game feel.
Requirements
- Strong Unity particle system skills — emission, shape, lifetime modules, texture sheet animation, sub-emitters, culling. This is the main thing we assess.
- Autonomous — you take a brief, make your own calls, unblock yourself, and deliver without close supervision.
- Basic shader authoring for VFX — you can build and modify your own VFX shaders and materials, not only use existing ones.
- Ability to hit a visual target without transparency — alpha-clipped and opaque only.
- Understanding of overdraw and why it is expensive on mobile VR hardware.
- Strong art sense — silhouette
