6How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, and what is not on it. The hard targets, how often each is actually looked at, and the quiet signals that never reach a dashboard.

Business Unit Revenue from Immersive Products

The total revenue generated directly from immersive experiences and associated services within your business unit.

Target · Achieve £2M+ in annual recurring revenue (ARR) from XR products within 3 years.

If Q1 revenue from our VR training platform was £450K, and the annual target is £2M, you're on track to hit it, assuming consistent growth.

Time-to-Market for New Immersive Products

The average time it takes to move a new immersive product or major feature from concept approval to public release.

Target · Reduce average time-to-market by 25% year-over-year through strategic platform investments and process optimisation.

If a new AR application used to take 18 months to launch, we'd expect that to drop to around 13.5 months, thanks to your architectural decisions and team efficiency.

Immersive Platform Performance & Stability

Overall uptime, crash rate, and target frame rate consistency across our core immersive applications on target hardware.

Target · Maintain 99.9% uptime for cloud-based XR services and achieve 90%+ frame rate adherence (e.g., 90fps) on primary standalone VR devices.

Our flagship VR training app had a 90.5% frame rate adherence last month, and only 0.05% of sessions ended in a crash – that's good work from the team you've built.

Return on Investment (ROI) for Immersive R&D

The financial return generated from investments in research and development for new immersive technologies, measured against project costs.

Target · Achieve a minimum of 1.5x ROI on major R&D projects within 2 years of launch.

A £500K investment in a new haptic feedback system for surgical training generated £800K in additional licence sales and reduced training costs by £150K over 2 years, yielding a 1.9x ROI.

Strategic Technical Vision & Roadmap

The clarity, foresight, and adaptability of the multi-year technical roadmap for immersive technologies, and how well it aligns with overall business strategy.

Regular positive feedback from the CTO and Executive Leadership. The roadmap is consistently referenced in strategic planning. We're not constantly reacting to market changes, but anticipating them. Your team understands the 'why' behind their work.

Team Leadership & Talent Development

The effectiveness of your leadership in building, mentoring, and retaining a high-performing team of immersive developers and architects.

High team retention rates (below 10% voluntary turnover). Positive feedback in 360-degree reviews about your leadership style. Successful promotions of team members. We're attracting top talent in a competitive market. Your team feels empowered and supported.

Cross-Functional Influence & Collaboration

Your ability to influence and collaborate effectively with other business units (Product, Sales, Marketing, IT) to ensure immersive tech is integrated seamlessly and understood across the organisation.

You're regularly invited to strategic planning meetings outside your immediate department. Product teams proactively seek your input. Sales teams are confident selling our XR solutions because they understand the tech. There are no 'us vs. them' silos.

External Industry Presence & Thought Leadership

Your contribution to positioning the company as a leader in immersive technologies through speaking engagements, publications, and participation in industry bodies.

You're invited to speak at major XR conferences. We're cited in industry reports. You're a recognised voice in the spatial computing community. We're seen as a company that 'gets' immersive tech, not just dabbles in it.

7Would you like it

Both sides. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy

Shaping the Future of Technology

You'll spend your days thinking about how spatial computing can genuinely transform industries, not just build another app. This means evaluating nascent technologies, building strategic partnerships, and pushing the boundaries of what's possible. You're excited by the long-term impact.

Leading the charge on integrating new haptic feedback devices into our training simulations, seeing how it fundamentally changes user engagement and learning outcomes.

Building and Empowering High-Performing Teams

You get a real buzz from seeing your team succeed, grow, and tackle incredibly complex problems. This involves coaching, mentoring, removing blockers, and creating a culture where innovation thrives. You're building a capability, not just delivering projects.

Mentoring a Lead Developer to step up and architect a critical new XR platform, then celebrating their success when it launches smoothly.

Driving Tangible Business Impact

You're motivated by seeing your technical vision translate into real-world business results – revenue, efficiency gains, or market leadership. This means constantly linking technical decisions back to commercial outcomes and proving the value of your investments.

Presenting to the board on how our new AR maintenance tool reduced field service costs by £500K in its first year, directly attributing it to your team's work.

What frustrates people

Constantly managing executive expectations about the 'metaverse' and explaining why truly transformative experiences take years, not months, and significant investment.
The relentless pace of hardware and SDK changes, often breaking existing solutions and requiring constant re-evaluation of our tech stack.
Securing significant budget and resources for R&D in a space that still feels 'experimental' to some parts of the business.
Hiring and retaining top-tier immersive talent in a highly competitive and niche market.
The 'it works on my 4090' problem, but at an organisational scale: stakeholders evaluating early prototypes on high-end PCs and expecting that same fidelity on mobile VR headsets.

What this role does not give you

A purely hands-on coding role; while you'll stay technically sharp, your primary focus will be strategic and leadership-oriented.
A fully defined, stable tech stack; you'll be making decisions about which platforms to bet on, and those bets won't always pay off.
Guaranteed success for every innovative project; many R&D efforts will be learning experiences that don't make it to production.
A quiet, heads-down environment; you'll be in meetings, presenting, and coaching most of the week.

8Who you work with

This role directly impacts our ability to innovate and compete in the spatial computing market. You'll be responsible for a significant portion of our R&D spend and the success of our immersive product lines. Your decisions will influence our market positioning, customer satisfaction, and ultimately, the profitability and growth of the business unit. Essentially, you're building a new pillar of our business.
