The opportunity

Join us at Unity as we transform the Engine into a true data-powered platform that helps creators deeply understand and serve their players. With our Data Developer Framework, we're pioneering a new approach where developers maintain complete control over their data while Unity provides the infrastructure to collect, organize, and unlock its value—all from one centralized dashboard.

Engine Data sits at the heart of this ambition: building richer, safer runtime signals directly into the Engine so machine learning engineers and product teams can better attract, understand, and retain players. You'll own the strategy and implementation for transforming raw engine and runtime data into a groundbreaking competitive moat—proprietary data that only Unity can collect. This is an opportunity to leapfrog the industry by applying AI to understand, structure, and unlock data that powers everything from user acquisition to game creation. We want you to convert Unity's unique position into real, actionable data products that create value both internally for our AI/ML initiatives and externally for the developer community. This is a forward-thinking role where you'll build the foundation for Unity's next generation of AI-powered capabilities.

What you'll be doing

• Define and implement the strategy for collecting, structuring, and classifying proprietary data from Unity's engine and runtime (code, assets, in-engine behaviors, usage patterns)

• Partner with engineering teams to design data pipelines that feed downstream AI/ML products and build scalable collection mechanisms

• Identify and validate which data and labels will be most valuable for machine learning applications and developer-facing services

• Transform data assets into authoring capabilities that developers can use to improve their games and applications

• Collaborate with product and go-to-market partners to position Unity's data capabilities as a key differentiator in the market

What we're looking for

• Hands-on experience with ML workflows, particularly data collection, labeling, classification, and structuring datasets for model training

• Deep understanding of game development or app development workflows and the ability to identify developer pain points

• Proven track record of building developer-facing products that translate technical capabilities into clear user value

• Ability to work effectively in multi-functional teams spanning engineering, data science, and product

• Experience making data-driven decisions about what to build and how to prioritize based on important metrics and user impact

You might also have

• Experience designing features that encourage data sharing while respecting user privacy and creating mutual value

Additional information

• International relocation support is not available for this position
