Full job description

Unity 3D Engineer, SeniorThe Opportunity: Are you excited at the prospect of unlocking the secrets held by a data set? Are you fascinated by the possibilities presented by the IoT, machine learning (ML), and artificial intelligence (AI) advances? In an increasingly connected world, massive amounts of structured and unstructured data open new opportunities. As a data scientist, you can turn these complex data sets into useful information to solve global challenges. Across private and public sectors from fraud detection to cancer research, to national intelligence, you know the answers are in the data.

We have an opportunity for you to use your analytical skills to improve the government's advanced analytics capabilities. You’ll work closely with your client to understand their questions and needs, and then dig into their data-rich environment to find the pieces of their information puzzle. You’ll develop algorithms, write scripts, build predictive analytics, apply ML and deep learning, and use the right combination of tools and frameworks to turn that set of disparate data points into objective answers to help drive innovation, research, and development for our military and government leaders to make informed decisions. You’ll provide your client with a deep understanding of their data, what it all means, and how they can use it. Join us as we use data science for good in bringing decision support and innovation to our clients.

Join us. The world can’t wait.

  • Experience with C# coding and building custom game engine logic workflows in Unity 3D

  • Experience deploying Unity 3D into a production cloud or on-premises environment

  • Ability to leverage geospatial libraries for advanced mapping and location-based features within Unity

  • Ability to implement connection with various external services and ensure seamless interaction within the Unity application

  • Ability to obtain a Secret clearance

  • Bachelor's degree

Nice If You Have:

  • 2+ years of experience with developing ML models, including supervised, unsupervised, or reinforcement learning
