The opportunity

As a VR Development Specialist Technician, you will join a growing number of highly skilled technologists working in the Creative Technology team, supporting highly talented students and staff at the London College of Communication.

Technicians spend the majority of their time providing one-to-one support to students working on creative technology projects, delivering inductions and orientations, designing and teaching workshops, developing resources on our website, carrying out maintenance and upkeep of specialist equipment, developing tools and resources for use in the Lab, and working with our AV and Exhibition installation teams to ensure that student work you have been supporting can be exhibited during public shows at key points during the year.

About you

You will have a strong background in VR project development in Unity, with proficiency in VR-related concepts such as positional tracking, locomotion, spatial audio, motion sickness, and mixed or merged reality. Knowledge of deployment environments, including Unity, Google Daydream, Android Studio or Xcode is essential to the role. The ideal candidate will be able to demonstrate the ability to use personal development time to produce teaching and learning tools to support experimental VR, AR and Mixed/Merged Reality projects. These tools will make use of programming and/or physical computing, to create immersive, interactive environments that go beyond the headset.

If you have any general queries, you may contact Lesley Wilkins, Staffing Administrator, lcc.jobs@lcc.arts.ac.uk or telephone: 020 7514 7985
