Game Tester / QA

Who are we

MetaGravity is a deep-technology startup headquartered in London which is solving the concurrency problem in simulation for massive virtual worlds and games. Our development hubs are in Poland and Sri Lanka.

Current game engines and game servers can handle a peak of ~100 players in a single game instance. However, the next generation of online games and metaverse experiences demand much larger simulated realities beyond what is currently feasible think, tens of thousands to millions of players and AI beings!

MetaGravity is solving this problem. We've worked from first principles to build distributed computing infrastructure that is limitless in its ability to scale, thus empowering creators to craft truly living, breathing worlds.
