About Hyper
Hyper's goal is to build the world's best avatar tools. We're starting with VTubing as our first use-case: avatars that people use to live-stream and make content online. Avatar content has broken into the multi-billion-view-per-month category on platforms like Twitch and YouTube, empowering a new group of people to tell stories and present themselves online while protecting their IRL identities. We're now the #1 US VTubing app on iOS and have recently released an AI platform to create avatar-powered agents. We're backed by great investors including Amazon, MakersFund, YCombinator, and more.
About the Role
Hyper is looking for a software engineer to join the early team with a focus on Unity. You'll help prototype, design, and architect features, libraries, and infrastructure for interactive 3D and AR experiences. You'll collaborate with other engineers and designers, improve our processes, and contribute to a great culture within the team.
Ideally, you have a portfolio of projects that demonstrate your expertise, from personal projects to open source modules. Professional experience is preferred but not required; we care about your work first and foremost.
You will help build out our core Unity experience and frameworks that are consumed by our mobile and desktop clients. You’ll also help architect services related to the Unity pipeline and solve problems for new mediums like AR.
You should be familiar with software development principles and best practices, and have a good general understanding of the various working parts of a modern application. A portfolio of your own projects to share is ideal.
You will be joining a small team focused on a fast-growing product with strong signs of product-market fit. Hyper is a team of about 7 people, fully remote with a few team members in California. Written communication is extremely important due to our distributed nature, and you should be able to communicate your ideas, proposals, and decisions effectively.
Bonus points if you are familiar with or have an interest in related disciplines like AR, AI, and consumer software.
