Ar Vr Application Developer Unity Engine

Job Responsibilities:

• Develop, debug, and document code using C/C++, bash, shell, C#, Unity, Unreal Engine and/or Python
• Support H&S UXR studies by developing testbeds and tools for diverse and innovative hardware prototypes. Anticipated needs include:
  • Implementing embedded device firmware to communicate with sensors, display, dimming technologies, and other embedded hardware components and systems
  • Hardware and software system integration across sensors, displays, computer-based stimuli, dynamic obstacle courses, and more
  • Utilizing/Using API frameworks for appropriate logging, transmitting, and visualization of multi-dimensional data from sensors and tracking systems
  • Develop event-triggered algorithms to generate dynamic and/or randomized stimuli (e.g., display content)
• Partnering with XFN to understand capabilities and constraints of integrated hardware systems and firmware (including, but not limited to, displays, eye-tracking, cameras, depth sensors, IMU sensors, wearables)
• Collaborating with H&S UXR team members to create flexible, reusable software user interfaces ("virtual labs") that support adjustment of experimental parameters by study RAs and inclusion of new parameters in the future
• Working with H&S UXR research scientists and/or vendors to provide rapid response and troubleshooting on-site during user research studies

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience
