Dundee, Dundee City, United Kingdom University of Dundee Full time

The School of Science and Engineering is well-known for its great teaching and relevant research, focusing on tackling global issues related to energy, the environment, healthcare, technology, forensic science, and infrastructure.

The Leverhulme Research Centre for Forensic Science is a significant project with a £10 million budget over 10 years, aiming to bring positive disruption to the current forensic science landscape. As a crucial role in this project, we are looking for an outstanding individual to join our team as an XR Application Specialist with Multi-Platform Focus to work on developing Virtual and Augmented Reality applications for forensic and crime scene professionals, specifically focusing on documenting indoor and outdoor spaces.

This position is temporary until June 30, 2026.

We are searching for someone with a background in areas like software development, game design, 3D modeling, and a proven research track record in computer science.

Your main responsibilities will include:
  • Creating VR/AR experiences for various platforms like standalone, PCVR, and mobile devices.
  • Engaging in collaborative research, including selecting appropriate research methods and contributing to the development of innovative research ideas in XR and VR applications.
  • Producing clear and concise documentation for code and applications.
  • Effectively communicating scientific knowledge and data to non-experts.
  • Staying updated on the latest trends and technologies in VR/AR.
We are looking for someone who:
  • Preferably holds a PhD, although not mandatory. Applicants without a PhD should have extensive practical experience in using VR/AR in real-world scenarios.
  • Has a proven track record in designing and autonomously developing multiplatform applications (mobile, desktop, or web apps).
  • Possesses advanced knowledge and practical application of computer science within VR/AR.
  • Shows excellent written, verbal, and IT communication skills.
  • Demonstrates a profound understanding of the research area and can work both independently and as part of a research team.
