    • Develop and manage asset pipelines, ensuring smooth workflows between Unity and other software used in MR content creation.
    • Optimize 3D models, textures, and animations for real-time performance, focusing on fidelity and efficiency across various MR platforms.
  • Collaboration and Leadership:

    • Work closely with creative and technical teams to bridge the gap between artistic vision and technical feasibility.
