Role	Required	Description
Unity Developer		Implements basic XR interactions in Unity: XR Interaction Toolkit for grab, activate, UI interaction in VR/AR. Configures XR Rig with tracked controllers and hand tracking.
Unreal Engine Developer		Implements basic XR interactions in Unreal: VR Interaction Framework for grab, use, UI interaction. Configures XR Pawn with Motion Controllers and hand tracking input.

Role	Required	Description
Unity Developer		Develops advanced XR interactions in Unity: two-handed interactions, physics-based manipulation, gesture recognition. Creates custom interactables and interactors for specific game mechanics.
Unreal Engine Developer		Develops advanced XR interactions in Unreal: two-handed physics manipulation, gesture-based controls, haptic-driven feedback. Creates custom interaction components.

Role	Required	Description
Unity Developer		Designs XR interaction systems for Unity: modular interaction architecture, cross-platform input abstraction, accessibility in XR. Optimizes interaction responsiveness and comfort.
Unreal Engine Developer		Designs XR interaction framework for Unreal: modular architecture, cross-platform abstraction, accessibility. Integrates eye tracking and advanced spatial interaction.

Role	Required	Description
Unity Developer		Defines XR interaction standards for Unity studio. Establishes interaction design language, UX guidelines for VR/AR. Coordinates XR designers and developers.
Unreal Engine Developer		Defines XR interaction standards for the Unreal studio. Establishes interaction design language and UX guidelines. Coordinates XR designers and developers.

Role	Required	Description
Unity Developer		Defines XR interaction strategy at studio level. Evaluates emerging interaction paradigms (eye tracking, brain-computer interfaces). Shapes XR UX innovation roadmap.
Unreal Engine Developer		Defines XR interaction strategy at studio level. Evaluates emerging paradigms: eye tracking, hand tracking, haptic gloves. Shapes XR UX roadmap.
