Industrial VR Safety Training Solutions

Lead Unity Developer

May 2023 – Dec 2023 Team of 9 (5 developers, 4 designers)

Overview

Led development of B2B VR training platform serving major Russian oil & gas companies and industrial enterprises. Delivered safety compliance training simulations across 12 modules including work at heights, fire safety, hazard detection, first aid, and construction site safety protocols.

Technical Stack

Unity, C#, Zenject, UniRx, OpenXR, Meta XR SDK, PICO SDK, Bitrix24 API, JSON-based configuration, Custom CI/CD

Major Achievement

  • Unified Architecture & Anti-Piracy System - Inherited 12 independent training simulators with disparate codebases and architectures
  • Architected and implemented complete platform unification enabling modular product delivery and robust license protection

Technical Approach

  • Designed modular initialization architecture using Zenject dependency injection, consolidating 12 separate projects into unified codebase with compile-time configuration system
  • Built comprehensive licensing system with online/offline verification through Bitrix24 CRM integration and hardware-based protection
  • Developed CRM monitoring dashboard for tracking client license usage and deployment analytics
  • Created automated build pipeline on dedicated build machine supporting multi-platform compilation (Meta Quest, PICO, PCVR)

Core Development Contributions

Safety Compliance Workflows

  • Implemented interactive checklist systems with step-by-step verification procedures
  • Built violation simulation systems demonstrating real-world safety consequences
  • Created assessment and scoring frameworks for training certification

Scenario Authoring Tools

  • Developed JSON-based scenario configuration system with runtime loading, enabling non-technical staff to create and modify training content
  • Built custom Unity Editor extensions and inspectors to accelerate level design workflows
  • Created product configuration tools for managing different deployment packages

Cross-Platform Optimization

  • Maintained single codebase supporting mobile VR (Meta Quest, PICO) and PCVR with build configuration tooling
  • Implemented comprehensive graphics optimizations: occlusion culling, LOD systems, texture atlasing/compression, baked lighting, draw call batching
  • Achieved target frame rates across standalone and PC VR platforms

UI/UX Systems

  • Designed unified interface package standardizing UX across all 12 training modules
  • Developed intuitive VR interaction patterns for industrial training contexts

Technical Leadership

  • Conducted code reviews and mentored development team
  • Made architectural decisions for modular system design
  • Planned technical roadmap and feature prioritization

Training Modules Delivered

  • Work at Heights Safety
  • Fire Safety Qualification
  • Hazard Detection & Response
  • First Aid on Production Sites
  • Occupational Safety Requirements
  • Construction Site Safety Rules

Business Impact

  • Enabled flexible modular product offerings—clients could purchase any combination of training modules
  • Streamlined client deployments and eliminated deployment complexity
  • Protected revenue through anti-piracy measures, preventing unlicensed product copying
  • Reduced ongoing maintenance overhead by consolidating codebases
