We are working on a VR based Android App, and we are looking to hire someone with technical background and passion in Virtual Reality(Unity3D, Game Engine, Shaders, Artifial Intelligence stuff) But it is so hard to find developers in this domain. Tried Angellist and some VR forums but in vain. Does anyone know or can refer anyone in this space?
Any help would be appreciated.
Are you looking for entry level talent or someone with more experience? I've been looking to move into the gaming industry a while now (from web development). I have been teaching myself C++/3D game development in my free time and I have a couple of small freelance gaming projects under my belt (one of them used Unity).<p>Also, to add to this discussion: There doesn't seem to be many good places for people to connect with the type of talent you're looking for. I've been looking for a while now and have managed to find very few such listings. gamasutra's job board seems to be one of the few places with a fair few jobs.
Put some numbers like $100k or 7% equity etc. in your ad. There are plenty of Unity or C++ game developers out there. Not all of them have 6 years of experience but they can still code.
