Game & 3D/XR Development, Backend Developer
Enver is a leading VR game studio and publisher headquartered in New York City. We build viral, social gaming worlds and are known for top-tier publishing and marketing, with creator-led campaigns behind some of the biggest titles in VR, including chart-topping games on Meta Quest. Our specialty is social, live-ops driven multiplayer games built around communities, creators, and content loops.
The RoleA free to play, social VR game for Meta Quest. You are a senior developer on a small team. Your core responsibility is development: writing code, defining the architecture, and building prototypes into live games. Alongside that you help plan timelines, distribute features across the developers, and keep the project on track. Management responsibilities are light. Most of your week is spent building.
The cycle is fast. Ideas become playable multiplayer prototypes in weeks, and games that go forward move into production and live ops with big updates every few weeks. Code you write reaches real players quickly, and you see the impact the same week.
- Write production code every day. Design, build and ship gameplay and metagame features in Unity / C#
- Develop real-time networked VR gameplay: state sync, server-authoritative logic, smooth multiplayer for physical locomotion
- Build live-ops systems (economy, progression, events, shop) integrated with our backend services
- Own the project's technical setup end to end: backend, multiplayer, store setup, CI/CD, releases
- Scope and break down tasks, split the work between yourself and the other developers
- Profile and optimize for Meta Quest, keeping builds stable and performant
- Investigate and resolve live incidents with urgency and clear communication
- Collaborate daily with design, art and production in a fully remote team

- Live-ops experience: release channels, remote config, economies, live ops systems, analytics
- Strong performance optimization and Unity internals (profiling, memory, IL2
CPP, Addressables) - Experience integrating client features against backend services (REST APIs, player data, economy, leaderboards)
- Comfortable owning architecture end to end
- Excellent communication: you explain problems and trade-offs clearly, flag risks early, and thrive in an async remote environment
Nice To Have
Bonus
- Play Fab, Azure Functions, or similar backend and live-ops platforms
- Experience working from a shared framework or codebase across several projects
- Understanding of the free to play social VR audience and what makes good creator content
