Hire Unity developers in India, without opening an entity
Building a game, an AR app, or a 3D simulation in Unity? Kaamwork’s Tech EOR platform and local HR support let you build a full-time Unity team in India overnight. You own hiring, salaries, and day-to-day management. We handle payroll, compliance, and retention.
How to hire Unity developers
in India
Unity projects run long. A mobile game needs live updates after launch. An AR training app needs new modules every quarter. And every Unity version and device update brings its own fixes. That work goes much faster with someone who knows your scenes, scripts, and build setup inside out.
So studios and product teams that hire Unity developers full-time keep that knowledge in-house, instead of onboarding a new freelancer every milestone. Kaamwork makes that possible in India without a legal entity or a local recruiting team. Your dedicated Unity developer works as your employee, and typically costs around a third of an equivalent US salary.
When you hire Unity developers in India through Kaamwork, you get:
Engineers across C#, Unity 6, AR Foundation, and multiplayer
Salary savings of up to 65% compared with an equivalent hire in the US
Time zone overlap arranged around your working hours, not against them
Scale from one dedicated developer to a full team
Full-time employees who work as an extension of your team, not a vendor bench
What does a Unity developer do?

Gameplay

Mobile games
Ships and updates games on iOS and Android.
AR and VR

Why hire Unity developers in India
India has a growing pool of Unity engineers working on mobile games, AR and VR, and 3D apps for studios worldwide.
Deepest talent pool
India produces the highest number of STEM graduates each year, and a young, remote-ready workforce building games, AR and VR, and 3D apps for global studios.
Material savings
Comparable Unity talent typically costs about a third of an equivalent US salary. And you skip the overhead of your own legal entity, which runs about 35% on top of total salary cost.
Risk, handled
Time zone overlap, local tax and labor-law compliance, and retention are the usual friction points. Kaamwork’s EOR and local HR model takes them off your plate.
How to hire a Unity developer through Kaamwork

You keep 100% of the hiring decision. Kaamwork carries the entity, the compliance, and the local HR relationship.
Unity developer cost to hire
How much does it cost to hire a Unity developer in India? With Kaamwork, you pay the developer’s salary plus a flat monthly EOR fee. No entity, no setup bill.
Here is how that compares with opening your own Indian entity. Salary depends on seniority and focus (mobile games vs. AR and VR vs. multiplayer), so talk to us for a benchmark on your specific role.
Add-ons such as laptops, medical insurance, benefits, offsites, and detailed background checks are charged at actual cost, with no markup, on top of salary and the monthly fee.
