Job Title: VR Developer - Training and Simulation

Location: Austin, TX

Company Background:

Virtuix Inc. (NASDAQ: VTIX) is a leading manufacturer of full-body virtual reality systems for consumer, enterprise, and defense markets. The company's premier portfolio of "Omni" omni-directional treadmills enables players to walk and run in 360 degrees inside video games and other virtual reality applications. With a commitment to innovation, Virtuix continues to push the boundaries of XR and AI, delivering immersive experiences to users worldwide.

Position Overview:

The Virtuix team is looking for a full-time VR Developer at our Austin, TX headquarters to develop and maintain training and simulation applications for enterprise, military, and defense customers. Candidates should be comfortable building serious training content for enterprise, military, and defense customers, including practical, mission-oriented simulation experiences.

In this role, you will own training and simulation modules from concept through delivery, including scenario design, level creation, gameplay logic, interaction design, testing, iteration, and final polish. Most projects will be focused in scope, but they will move quickly and require strong ownership, practical design judgment, and the ability to deliver complete, usable training modules.

Our applications are built using game engines such as Unreal Engine and Unity, so this role requires strong experience developing interactive 3D content, gameplay systems, and VR interactions. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys building practical VR experiences, can work independently, and wants to deliver complete training simulations for enterprise, military, and defense customers.

Responsibilities:

  • Translate customer requirements into complete VR training modules that can be delivered, tested, and iterated quickly
  • Design and implement interactive training scenarios, including training objectives, user flow, environment setup, gameplay logic, scoring, completion criteria, and after-action feedback
  • Build levels from start to finish, including blockout, layout, set dressing, lighting, and final polish
  • Implement gameplay logic, interaction systems, and training functionality using Unreal Engine/Blueprint, Unity/C#, or similar game development tools
  • Frequently test builds to ensure quality, usability, and reliability
  • Work in a fast-paced, small-team environment where one developer may own a complete module from start to finish

Requirements:

  • Must be eligible to work on U.S. defense-related projects. Depending on customer requirements, U.S. Person status or security clearance eligibility may be required.
  • Portfolio of work required for consideration
  • 2+ years of experience developing interactive 3D applications, games, simulations, or VR experiences using Unreal Engine, Unity, or a similar game engine
  • Bachelor’s degree in game design or a related field, or equivalent professional experience
  • Strong gameplay implementation skills using Blueprint scripting, C#, C++, visual scripting, or similar tools
  • Experience with level design, gameplay implementation, interaction design, and rapid prototyping
  • Ability to own small-to-medium projects from concept through completion
  • Comfortable developing serious training applications for enterprise, military, defense, or simulation customers
  • Strong desire to work in-office in a collaborative, fast-paced environment
  • Highly organized with strong attention to detail
  • Able to adapt quickly to changing requirements and approaching deadlines
  • Thrives in a startup with a do-it-all, get-it-done culture

Nice to have:

  • Experience developing in both Unreal Engine and Unity
  • Experience making networked or multiplayer applications
  • Experience with 3D modeling, animation, or content creation tools

Our ideal candidate has all the above skills, but we understand that strong candidates may not check every box. If you are highly motivated and meet most of the requirements, please apply anyway! We will consider any enthusiastic candidate interested in joining our team.

More About Virtuix:

Moving around virtual worlds by pushing buttons on a controller feels unnatural and static. To experience true VR, you need to walk around virtual worlds as you do in real life - using your own feet. That's why we developed "Omni."
