UI Engineer | Unity 6 + UI Toolkit | Remote (USA) | $120,000 – $130,000 + Benefits
The Company
This is a cutting-edge VR training company, blending hyper-realistic software with custom hardware to create fully immersive military simulations. Their tech is actively used by Navy SEALs, the Air Force, and Marine Special Forces to sharpen decision-making, improve reaction time, and prepare for the chaos of real-world combat. Backed by major investment and long-term military contracts, they’re financially rock-solid with a stable, mission-critical pipeline — delivering next-gen training that saves lives before boots ever hit the ground.
The Role
They’re looking for a UI Engineer with Unity 6 chops to help architect and implement sophisticated, responsive user interfaces across training modules. It’s about designing HUDs, dashboards, and interfaces that feel intuitive, immersive, and frictionless in high-stakes simulation environments. You’ll work closely with artists, designers, engineers, and UX leads to bring complex UI/UX to life using Unity’s UI Toolkit, UGUI, and prefabs. If you’ve got an eye for clean layout, love a modular prefab system, and know how to keep your UI performant and scalable, this is your spot.
Responsibilities:
- Build and maintain scalable UI components using Unity 6, UI Toolkit, and UGUI
- Develop prefabs and modular UI systems for repeated use across multiple simulation environments
- Collaborate with UX designers and graphic artists to translate wireframes and visual comps into pixel-perfect, interactive UI
- Optimize UI performance for hardware-constrained environments and high frame-rate requirements
- Debug, test, and fine-tune UI interactions, animations, and behaviors across builds
- Work within Unity’s Addressables system for modular content delivery and asset management
- Participate in regular design and code reviews, and contribute to UI feature planning
- Collaborate cross-functionally with audio, gameplay, and hardware teams to integrate UI within the broader system architecture
- Help establish and enforce UI development best practices across the engineering team
Requirements:
- Professional experience working in Unity (preferably Unity 6)
- 3-5 years of development experience with a focus on UI development
- Strong knowledge of UI Toolkit, UGUI, prefabs, and Unity animation systems
- An eye for art and design
- Comfortable working in a remote environment
- Experience across AAA or Indie PC/console gaming
- Interest in the MilSim, tactical, or defense simulation space
Nice to Haves:
- Background in graphic design with a supporting portfolio
- Familiarity with Addressables, Plastic SCM, and Azure DevOps workflows
- Audio engineering experience or interest in immersive audio design
Why Apply
This is your chance to build user interfaces for something that actually matters. This is military-grade, simulation-obsessed, high-performance engineering work, and they need someone who cares about the details. If you’ve been working in Unity and craving a challenge beyond the indie loop or AAA grind, send through an application. Real systems. Real users. Real stakes.
