The opportunity
At Unity, we believe the world is a better place with more creators in it. This means giving creators the tools they need to succeed, and most often, that’s the right documentation at the right time. Unity has a vast ecosystem of tools and solutions that all require different documentation needs and to meet those needs we’re building from the ground up a new web platform for the authoring and rendering of documentation that is product agnostic. That’s where you come in.
We’re looking for a Software Engineering Manager who can help manage a team of versatile engineers in architecting, building, maintaining, and operating this new platform. Be responsible for the tooling that powers modern authoring content experiences, collaboration and publication of end-user documentation and its consumption experience; for internal documentation and public facing products. You will be part of, and supported by an established multi-functional leadership team that spans design, product management, technical program management, and strategic partners in content localisation and AI integrations.
An ideal candidate will be collaborative by nature, with strong problem-solving and communication skills that they employ to elevate the work of those around them. You'll demonstrate authentic & empathetic leadership whilst encouraging a healthy work environment that supports team growth. Enable individual contributors to thrive, showcase your passionate about technology and skill at implementing and applying processes.
Not sure if you tick all the boxes? Don't worry! We are looking for great people with a track record of solving exciting and sophisticated problems in similar domains. Apply and join us!
