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.

Architectural Soundness & Stability

The robustness and future-proof nature of the technical designs you create.

Target · Zero critical architectural refactors required post-launch for solutions you've designed. Less than 0.5% crash rate for deployed applications.

After a major enterprise AR training deployment, the solution runs for 12 months without needing a fundamental architectural change, and the crash rate is consistently below 0.2%.

Project Delivery & Technical Debt

The ability to deliver projects on time and within budget, whilst keeping technical debt under control.

Target · 90% of projects where you lead the architecture delivered within 10% of the original timeline and budget. Technical debt (as measured by code quality tools/manual review) reduced by 15% quarter-on-quarter.

You architected the new AR remote assistance tool, which launched two weeks early and £20K under budget, whilst the team's technical debt score improved by 18% during the development cycle.

Performance Optimisation & User Experience

Ensuring our AR/VR applications meet critical performance targets for a smooth, comfortable user experience.

Target · All deployed applications maintain target framerate (e.g., 90fps for VR, 60fps for AR) with less than 1% dropped frames. Motion-to-Photon Latency consistently below 20ms.

The factory floor AR overlay you designed consistently runs at 60fps on HoloLens 2, even with complex 3D models, and user reports of motion sickness are virtually non-existent.

Technical Leadership & Mentorship

Your ability to guide, unblock, and elevate the technical capabilities of the development team.

Target · At least 3-4 direct reports show measurable improvement in their technical design skills and problem-solving autonomy over 12 months. Team members consistently seek your guidance on complex technical challenges.

Two junior architects you've been mentoring successfully led the technical design for their first medium-sized project, and the team regularly pings you for advice on tricky performance bottlenecks.

Technical Vision & Innovation

How well you anticipate future technology trends and integrate them into our architectural roadmap.

You're regularly bringing new ideas to the table, proposing pilot projects for emerging tech (e.g., neural rendering, spatial AI), and your architectural designs show foresight. You're not just reacting to problems
you're proactively shaping our technical future.

Stakeholder Confidence & Communication

The trust and clarity you build with both technical and non-technical stakeholders regarding architectural decisions and project risks.

Executives and project sponsors consistently trust your technical recommendations, even when they involve difficult trade-offs. You can explain complex technical challenges in plain English to anyone. You're the first person Product Management calls when they have a new, ambitious idea.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Your effectiveness in working with other teams (e.g., IT, Product, UX) to ensure seamless integration and deployment of AR/VR solutions.

You're seen as a bridge-builder between development and IT. You proactively involve security and infrastructure teams early in the design phase, avoiding costly surprises later. Other teams genuinely enjoy working with you on complex problems.

7Would you like it

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

What people enjoy

Solving Hard, Novel Technical Puzzles

You thrive on dissecting complex performance bottlenecks, designing scalable data pipelines for immersive environments, or figuring out how to integrate an AR app with a legacy enterprise system. The harder the problem, the more engaged you are.

Spending a week deep-diving into Unreal's rendering pipeline to squeeze out an extra 10fps on a challenging scene, then documenting your findings for the team.

Leading Technical Direction & Impacting Product

You love being the person who makes the critical technology choices, knowing your decisions will shape the final product and the team's approach. You get a kick out of seeing your architectural blueprints turn into functional, impactful solutions.

Successfully championing the adoption of a new cloud streaming solution that unlocks new capabilities for our clients, directly impacting our product roadmap.

Continuous Learning & Exploration

You're always tinkering with new XR hardware, experimenting with fresh SDKs, or diving into research papers. The rapid evolution of the field excites you, and you enjoy being at the forefront of what's possible.

Spending personal time prototyping with a new hand-tracking API, then presenting a compelling case for its inclusion in an upcoming project.

What frustrates people

The Demo-to-Production Chasm: A stakeholder sees a slick, high-fidelity demo and assumes it can be easily scaled into a robust, multi-user enterprise application, ignoring the 10x effort required for productionisation.
Constant Platform Whiplash: You spend six months building a solution on Platform X, only for Platform Y to be announced with a killer feature, or for Platform X to deprecate a critical API you depend on, forcing a scramble.
The Tyranny of the Thermal Budget: On standalone headsets like the Quest, your biggest enemy isn't the GPU or CPU, but heat. You're in a constant battle to deliver features before the device throttles performance, making optimisation a never-ending task.
Explaining 'Why It's Hard' to People Who Think It's a Video Game: Trying to justify budget and timelines to executives who don't understand the unique challenges of performance, user comfort, and hardware fragmentation in XR can be exhausting.
IT & Security as the Final Boss: Getting corporate IT to approve headsets on the Wi-Fi, manage device provisioning, and allow data to flow to/from your cloud backend is often a bigger challenge than the development itself. It's a bureaucratic maze.
The Unsolvable Onboarding Problem: No matter how intuitive you make it, a significant portion of first-time users will struggle with putting the headset on, adjusting the IPD, and learning the controllers. You'll design elegant solutions, but some problems are just human.

What this role does not give you

A static, predictable technology stack – things change too fast here.
The luxury of working on only one project at a time; you'll typically be juggling a few.
A role where you're just handed requirements; you'll be shaping them.
Complete control over every technical decision; you'll need to influence and compromise.

8Who you work with

This role directly shapes the technical direction and success of our AR/VR projects. Your decisions on architecture, technology stack, and performance optimisation dictate whether our solutions are viable, scalable, and ultimately deliver on their promise. You're accountable for ensuring the technical integrity of our immersive offerings, directly influencing client satisfaction and our reputation in the spatial computing market.

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, designing complex AR/VR solutions is incredibly demanding. You're juggling technical constraints, performance targets, and stakeholder expectations. What if you could offload some of the heavy lifting and focus more on the truly strategic, creative parts of your role? That's where AI comes in.

We're not talking about replacing your brain; we're talking about giving you a powerful co-pilot. By intelligently automating repetitive tasks, generating initial concepts, and streamlining documentation, AI tools can dramatically boost your productivity. Here's how you'll actually use AI to make your life easier and your architectures stronger.

AI-Assisted Asset Creation

Use generative AI tools like Midjourney or Luma AI to rapidly create concept art, 3D environment placeholders, and seamless PBR textures from simple text prompts. This slashes pre-production and prototyping time, letting you iterate on visual design concepts in hours, not days.

Intelligent Code & Shader Generation

Leverage AI code assistants (think GitHub Copilot) to auto-complete complex C# logic in Unity or C++ in Unreal, suggest performance optimisations, and generate boilerplate code for platform SDK integration. It can even help draft complex GPU shaders, freeing you up for higher-level architectural decisions.

Rapid Environment Prototyping

Employ AI-powered engine plugins (like Scenario.gg or similar tools) to generate entire 3D scenes, levels, or skyboxes from a mood board or descriptive text. This allows for incredibly fast iteration on environmental design, letting you test spatial layouts and visual themes before committing to manual modeling.

Automated Solution Documentation

Feed meeting transcripts, technical notes, and architectural diagrams into an LLM (like ChatGPT-4 or Claude) to automatically generate detailed technical design documents, API references, and architecture summaries. This saves you hours of tedious writing, ensuring your documentation is always up-to-date and accessible.
