While all of these metaverses build upon the same platform technology, they are each their web apps, built using the same technology foundations. These web apps are the way users access virtual worlds events and experiences via cloud streaming technology, manage their profile, buy virtual goods and services, interact with their friends, and even create their own objects and spaces. As a Backend  Web Developer working in Improbable Metaverse Group, you are responsible for supporting the creation of these metaverse web applications, as a combination of a creative and technical role.

  • Develop and execute against both short- and long-term roadmaps. Make effective tradeoffs that consider business priorities, user experience, and a sustainable technical foundation
  • Contribute to team strategy, tooling, process, and culture
  • Mentor and coach other engineers

  • Why You're Made For This:
  • 5+ years of professional, full-time software development experience
  • 1+ years of experience maintaining production services
  • Experience with any popular cloud provider (AWS, GCP, Azure)
  • Proficient in some modern programming languages like TypeScript, Python, Go, etc.
  • Understanding of front-end technologies such as TypeScript, React and CSS
  • Proficiency with Git source version control
  • Experience reviewing code to maintain a high standard of code quality across the team
  • Understanding of good practices for building and working with APIs
  • A self-starter mindset, capable of context-switching between various projects, codebases, and concepts

We are 'Flexa' certified, meaning our entire employee experience is anchored around flexibility and autonomy.

    While we think the above experience could be important, we’re keen to hear from people that believe they have valuable experience to bring to the role. If you identify with the team and mission, but not all of our requirements, then please still apply.
