Job Description
• Own and evolve the end-to-end Unity content pipeline for live ops assets, helping us ship 3D props and content updates with consistency and speed.
• Implement and validate 3D assets in Unity: prefabs, materials, shaders, collisions, LODs, lighting setups, and import settings, with an eye toward performance and reliability.
• Build and maintain tools, scripts, and automation (primarily in C# and Udon) that reduce manual work, prevent common errors, and make publishing repeatable.
• Create lightweight quality gates for content: asset validation checks, naming/structure conventions, performance budgets, and “ready to ship” checklists.
• Debug content and pipeline issues across disciplines, working with engineers on technical constraints and with artists on asset readiness.
• Collaborate with Product Design and Creators partners to ensure content supports the intended user experience and meets our quality bar.
• Document workflows so the whole team can move faster as we scale content volume in 2026.
Job Requirements
- You have 3+ years experience as a Technical Artist, Tools Artist, or similar role (or equivalent shipped work).
- You’re deeply comfortable in Unity and understand what it takes to ship real-time 3D content that performs well.
- You can write scripts (most likely C#) and you’ve built tools or automation that helped teams move faster or reduced production risk.
- You understand 3D fundamentals (meshes, materials, textures, lighting, optimization) and can collaborate effectively with artists on asset quality.
- You think in systems and pipelines: you notice recurring failure modes, then design guardrails that prevent them.
- You communicate clearly across disciplines and enjoy being the person who turns ambiguity into a reliable workflow.
- You have a strong ownership mindset: you care about shipping, not just “building a perfect tool someday.”
Benefits
- Work from anywhere! VRChat is a 100% remote company offering flexible working hours in combination with core hours supporting real-time collaboration
- Health benefits for U.S. and Canadian employees
- 401K (U.S.) and RRSP (Canada) retirement plans

- Paid parental leave
- Generous holiday schedule
