The opportunity

We are looking for a highly skilled and self-motivated manager for a team of Technical Program Managers who will work with developers to make sure our feature development is defined in unison with product, and in sync with the needs of the organization. As a member of Reach Platform, you will collaborate with engineering, product management, technical art and other subject areas, supporting the teams in their internal processes, building and improving team development and feature velocity at Unity. Under normal circumstances, some amount of international travel is considered to be a key part of the role.

Our mission in Unity Reach is helping teams deliver their creations to the widest possible audience, seamlessly to the devices they use. We strive to make development in Unity easier, faster and more reliable. From the low level hardware, to the rendering pipelines that put the content on screen, Reach works every day to deliver on the promise of deploying customer projects everywhere they want.

What you'll be doing

  • Always be iterating on production processes and methodologies to continuously improve our velocity, collaboration, and visibility; lead by example with well facilitated meetings, clear agendas, and timely follow through on actions
  • Coordinate with R&D engineering leadership and product management to build and maintain a clear roadmap of feature development goals and partner commitments
  • Use effective communication, tools, and program management strategies to ensure that goals are met, internal partners are informed, and teams are up-to-date with progress
  • Be a change management specialist and facilitator in the organization, working with the current of embedded habits rather than fighting against it
  • Internalize and evangelize Unity’s core values: Users first. Best ideas win. In it together. Go bold!

What we're looking for

  • Extensive experience in software production / project management, working cross functionally within an engineering organization (or equivalent related experience)
  • Ability to gracefully handle change in an organization, working with the current of embedded habits rather than fighting against it
  • Outstanding interpersonal skills, both written and oral, to speak to a broad audience, internal and external; listening to, speaking with, and resolving differences with subject matter authorities
  • Demonstrate a proactive, curious mentality; be willing to ask questions, and be willing to dig for your own answers as well – experience encouraging and growing these instincts with your teams
  • Familiarity with complex multi-platform technologies and challenges in real-time content application development

You might also have

  • Experience using the Unity engine or other 3d real-time engines
  • Experience working with distributed teams across multiple time zones
  • Literacy and demonstrable experience with Kanban, Scrum, Waterfall, and other development methodologies
