What does a Unity Developer do?
A Unity developer is best described as a one-person production team (though that doesn’t mean you’ll work alone!).
You’ll start as a generalist, developing a working knowledge of the aspects of the Unity Engine commonly used for games production. As you progress, you’ll develop your confidence and skills in areas relating to both art and programming — this will make you a strong cross-team communicator, able to speak the language of both the art and programming departments.
Research and problem-solving are critical skills for Unity developers; every day you’ll face production challenges as puzzles to be solved. What makes people in this role really stand out is this: when they don’t know how to do something needed to solve a problem, Unity developers learn it!
