• Take the best of those prototypes to final coding, and help release as Unreal-based open-source components, samples, and mixed-reality apps
• Actively bridge design and engineering, advising design teams on engineering constraints and advising engineering teams on design intent and capturing the desired feel of an experience. Seek inclusive and divergent feedback from peers and leads to iteratively improve product experience
• Contribute to broad, shared understanding of experiential and technical factors across all disciplines.
• Collaborate across disciplines to solve deep experiential and technical problems and drive incredible final experiences
• Stay on top of the latest insights and design practices across software, web, gaming, and AR/VR industries
