How to hire a Unity developer? Skills to look for, interview questions, and more

Unity is one of the most popular 2D & 3D game engines used for game development. Having been around for a long time, the engine has changed and expanded dramatically over the years, managing to keep up with the latest practices and technologies. And while traditional programming serves various purposes, there are much more practical options when it comes to building games.

There are several reasons why Unity would be a constructive choice for your business's game development, and there are numerous benefits to gain from hiring a professional Unity developer. However, hiring a Unity 3D game developer can be a cumbersome task. It may be a highly in-demand skill in the market at present, but finding a good Unity programmer is not as easy as it may seem.

We aim to make the hiring process easy and efficient for you. This guide will help you identify the best talents and shortlist exceptional Unity programmers, especially if you’re looking to grow your team with top-notch remote Unity programmers.

Skills to look for in a Unity 3D game developer?

To help you make a more grounded analysis on the right candidate to hire, here are some skills proficient Unity 3D game developers should have under their belt.

1. Sound expertise in 3D and 2D graphics

Unity supports both 3D and 2D graphics, allowing developers the freedom to choose the art style for projects. Each graphic type comes with its specialized set tools (such as sprite sheet cutting for 2D graphics), including its script APIs to call upon different physics options suited for each style.

3D graphics, on the other hand, also offer a highly robust set of tools as well, with the ability to create custom materials, build shaders, customize lighting, utilize post-processing effects, and more. With this, you can note that there are a well-rounded set of tools to use for different graphics types. Hence, the candidate needs to have expert skills in 2D and 3D graphics.

2. Familiarity with the system architecture

Unity offers a very transparent method for composing the game architecture. Each “level” in a Unity game project is divided into a Scene that contains all the game objects needed for the player to use the level. It includes the background, player character, enemy, bullet, or other tools. Unity also offers the ability to have a parent-child relationship between objects in the hierarchy, making it very easy to add multiple objects to one character. So, while hiring a Unity developer, you can ask related questions to design and system architecture to know if the candidate is fully aware of them.

3. Experience with the Unity Scripting API

Unity comes with a powerful scripting API that offers quick access to the most popular features. This includes both general game features and specific API calls, giving the developer entry to specific features and nuances for the engine. For example, while the UI elements (text color) can be adjusted from the engine itself, the Scripting API also exposes those elements to be adjusted via code. This goes for everything that can be accessed from the Unity Inspector, including position, rotation, materials, audio playback, etc. Candidates who are familiar with various API scripting methods prove that they have a solid understanding of the game engine and it shows how well-experienced they are in developing Unity-based applications.

4. Proficiency with cross-platform development

It is highly recommended for a Unity developer to be familiar with several operating systems and platforms in the market currently as Unity offers support for building on an immense number of platforms. As long as the developer is proficient with the appropriate development kit, you can export games for Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, Linux, PS4, Xbox, and more. HTML5 games are not left out just in case you want to put your game up on the web. The game engine also ensures flexibility, enabling you to perform little tweaks for the various builds and eliminate the need to preserve multiple versions of your project for each platform.

5. Profound skills in programming with C#/C++

Along with data-oriented and object-oriented programming languages, Unity developers should be skilled in C# and C++ programming languages. These are the main languages used in creating the game engine, thus, making it a vital skill for developers. A thorough understanding and command of the languages must be emphasized while hiring a Unity developer as this will allow you to meet your project's requirements while also making the most of the game engine.

6. Deep expertise in software development

The skillset of a Unity developer should be a blend of sound creative and technical skills. As such, the shortlisted candidate should be skilled in implementing appropriate levels of aesthetics and functionality into the product development. Level design and planning are also essential skills for a Unity developer. While hiring, you should consider developers with an in-depth knowledge of web, mobile, and console game development, as well as a hands-on developmental approach in creating the core interactivity and architectural patterns for the project.

7. Sound troubleshooting and testing skills

Unity developers should be able to efficiently test, identify and resolve possible threats or bugs that could hamper the functionality or reliability of the product design. You should consider candidates who can come up with effective solutions in real-time to prevent future headaches for the development team.

Top interview questions to hire a Unity developer

Whether you're an IT recruiter or a project manager, you know that finding top developers is critical to the success of your project. Here are some sample interview questions to use when looking to hire a Unity 3D developer to add to the team.

You can start off the conversation with a basic question like this, however, with this question, you can ascertain whether the candidate is proficient in Unity development and is fully aware of the environment. Some essential components in Unity include:

  • Toolbar:
    The toolbar function features several important manipulation tools for the scene and game windows.
  • Scene View:
    It is a fully rendered 3D preview of the currently open scene displayed and enables you to add, edit and remove GameObjects.
  • Hierarchy:
    It displays a list of every GameObject within the current scene view.
  • Project Window:
    In complex games, the project window searches for specific game assets as needed. It explores the assets directory for all textures, scripts, models, and prefabs used within the project.
  • Game View:
    In Unity, you can view your game and at the same time make changes to your game while you are playing in real-time.

The fixed timestep feature helps to set the system updates at a fixed time interval. A queue-like mechanism will manage all real-time events that are accumulated between the time epochs. If the frame rate drops below some threshold limit set for the fixed timestep, then it can affect the game speed. By answering this, the candidate will show his/her grasp of basic Unity concepts.

The candidate will likely be familiar with the Unity file, but explaining it in words can be a bit tricky for some. You can test their ability to transfer practical knowledge into explanatory words with this question. Their answer may look like this - Unity files are scene web player files created by Unity. These files consist of all assets and other game data in a single archive and are used to enable gameplay within a browser that has the Unity Web Player Plugin. The assets within a 3D Unity file are saved in a proprietary closed format.

To hide gameobject in Unity 3D, you have to use the code

gameObject.transform.SetActive(false);

Prefab in Unity is referred to as a pre-fabricated object template (a class combining objects and scripts). You can find out how much the candidate knows about the Unity game engine by throwing this question. At design time, a prefab can be dragged from the project window into the scene window and added to the scene’s hierarchy of game objects. The object can then be edited if desired. While at the run time, a script can cause a new object instance to be created at a given location or with a given transform set of properties.
