About Us

Join us to rethink how sports are experienced. Backed by our new AI-driven platform, we will be building live sports experiences to be more immersive, more personalised - giving fans a chance to take control, watch the game from new angles, even participate in the action, on any device. As a Senior Unity Engineer, you'll help shape the visual language of this new medium, using and extending Cinemachine to capture the pace and energy of live events. If you're excited by the idea of blending real-time data, cinematic tools, and creative storytelling, we'd love to hear from you.

We work in a fast-paced, exploratory environment where ideas are rapidly prototyped, tested, and refined. It's a space that rewards creativity, flexibility, and a hands-on approach. If you enjoy working iteratively, experimenting with new techniques, and solving open-ended problems, you'll feel right at home. If not, this may not be the right fit - and that's okay too.
