Job Title: Senior Unity Game Developer (AR/Immersive Experiences)
This goes out to everyone who wants to push things forward.
We are inventing a new kind of tour — immersive explorations powered by location-based augmented reality that are social, fun, and educating. At ZAUBAR, we're taking the metaverse to the streets!
Right now, we're partnering with some of Germany's most interesting cultural institutions, media houses, tour operators, and brands to make immersive tours a reality.
Soon, we're enabling anyone to create, distribute, and monetize immersive tours.
The founders and team have deep backgrounds in AI, 3D UI, and journalism.
We are looking for a seasoned game developer with experience shipping multiple Unity games or interactive apps.
You enjoy solving complex device and game platform problems where you can exercise your practical technical knowledge. You also effectively collaborate with others to provide technical expertise on identified issues.
