Job description

This role involves developing a virtual reality prototype of a 30m x 30m hemispherical restaurant designed for immersive dome viewing. The project requires building a walkable VR experience that accurately simulates seating, sightlines, lighting, and audio‑visual behaviors within the dome environment. A key aspect is enabling both 360° and standard 2D video content playback, including live video input via camera or network stream, to facilitate real‑time video mapping previews. The application must feature an intuitive operator UI, allowing staff to load and play new content without ongoing engineering support. The successful candidate will be responsible for designing and implementing the technical pipeline, advising on hardware and software for future deployment, and ensuring the system is user‑friendly and maintainable.

Deliverables

  • Fully functional VR application simulating the dome restaurant environment
  • Desktop preview version of the experience
  • Operator tools for managing video inputs and playback
  • Integration of live video input (camera / network stream) for real‑time mapping
  • Clean, intuitive operator UI for non‑technical users
  • Content samples and demonstration configuration for live input
  • Comprehensive documentation and training materials
  • Post‑handover support window
  • Transfer of all relevant source files and rights upon completion

Requirements

  • Proven experience developing VR applications, ideally with Unity or Unreal Engine
  • Strong understanding of immersive environments, video mapping, and real‑time content playback
  • Proficiency in integrating live video streams and managing multiple video formats
  • Ability to design user‑friendly operator interfaces for non‑technical users
  • Experience with 3D modeling, lighting, and audio‑visual simulation in VR
  • Excellent documentation and training skills
  • Ability to advise on hardware / software for future deployment
  • Strong communication and problem‑solving abilities
  • Availability for post‑handover support and training
  • All work must be for hire with full rights transferred
