What will you do?
- Implement game features and enhancements with C# and Unity.
- Performance profiling and improvements.

- Any other tasks that fit your skill set. That could include tool development, deployment, web development, QA, etc.
What are we looking for?
- Strong knowledge of C# and Unity.
- Great communication skills.
- Ability to work independently, manage time, and work to deadlines.
- Drive and ambition for learning and improving is perhaps the most important.
- Confidence with source control (git).
Other valued skills:
- Familiarity with project management and issue tracking tools like GitHub, Trello and Jira.
- Python for automation and tool creation.
- Familiarity with FMOD C# API for audio integration.
- Being Melbourne-based is highly valued, but not essential.
Why you’ll love working on Untethered:
- Working on a game with an established and eager community is highly rewarding.

- Relaxed working environment with a small independent team.
