Webaverse | Senior Software Engineer (full-stack) | Remote | Full-time
Webaverse (https://webaverse.com/) is building an immersive virtual world in the browser where users can socialize, game, and monetize their creations in. We have raised a seed round and are looking for gamedev-minded web hackers.
We‘ve built a fun and free way to create digital assets on our site, in-game, or using our unique discord bot built with web tech. Our technology is centered around an Ethereum sidechain and cross-signing technology that enables tokens to cross blockchains.
The tech is 7 years in the making, and is open source: https://github.com/webaverse
We're looking for Engineers that meet the following requirements:
** Strong web engineering skills (JS, profiling, optimization)
** Understand WebGL shaders + rendering pipelines
** Experience/interest in Crypto/Web3 applications
** Comfortable in greenfield startup projects
** Self-starters that can quickly learn something
** Enjoys working on and documenting bleeding edge code
** Good at written and verbal communication
Technologies we use: Ethereum, IPFS, Three.js, AWS, Node.js, React, Next.js, WebRTC, WebXR
We are mission driven to bring ownership, self-expression, and less friction into building the best version of the Metaverse.
You'll be working with the founders on the hardest and most valuable interoperability problems in game development. If you're interested in sci-fi concepts and/or enjoyed reading Snow Crash feel free to say hi.
