Original posting
VR Game Developer | Autism Therapy | Washington DC based startup.
Floreo (http://floreotech.com) is an early-stage startup in Washington DC developing a first of its kind virtual reality platform to deliver children’s therapy. Our first product is focused on VR-based autism therapy.
We are a multidisciplinary team of developers, doctors, designers, therapists, parents, and artists and we are working in the uncharted territory of VR for delivery of therapist mediated therapeutic experiences. This is a unique opportunity to build a highly challenging technically grounded product that has the potential of helping families in immeasurable ways.
We are looking for a second developer to join our team with the following qualities:
Game development experience using a commercial game engine such as Unity or Unreal is required
Experience in all aspects of developing a game, from design to fine tuning multiplayer network latencies are highly desirable
Experience specifically with VR is a plus
Startup experience is highly desired as we are a small team used to wearing lots of hats
Our stack currently includes, Unity (using CSharp), to implement the VR / in game experience. We are using “Google VR for Unity” AKA daydream/cardboard to build for iOS and Android. We are using in house developed 3D and audio assets. We run our own backend and API, written in Go on AWS.
