About The Position

Unity powers millions of creators — and XR is one of the most exciting frontiers we support. This role owns how Unity runs across the XR ecosystem: headsets, mixed reality devices, and whatever comes next. You'll set the platform roadmap, negotiate directly with global hardware partners, and work hand-in-hand with engineering and R&D to keep Unity's XR capabilities ahead of the curve. This is a high-visibility role with real influence — your decisions will shape what millions of creators can build. Short-term: stabilize and expand XR platform support, build strong partner relationships, and close critical dependency gaps. Long-term: position Unity as the go-to engine for next-gen XR and AI-assisted creation.
