Web3 Lead Technical Designer (Metaverse)

We are a British metaverse and Web3 technology company pioneering cultural change through the creation of interconnected virtual worlds and environments. From games and entertainment to military planning, we offer opportunities for the transfer of assets, ideas, identity, and influence.

Virtual worlds have a profound impact on the real world. Our goal is to work with partners to create metaverse experiences that enrich and meaningfully extend the potential of our lives, through live interactive events, multiplayer games, entertainment and social spaces – all with cutting-edge technology that allows many thousands of people to interact in high-fidelity environments, at the same time and in the same space.

Your Mission

We are looking to create new massive online experiences in collaboration with our community and partners. We have already started this journey by holding the ScavLab event with over 4,000 players crowding into a single world, and a live Meet and Greet with K-Pop star Alexa attended by thousands of fans as well as launched 'The Otherside' with Yoga Labs, see here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NEUPQzH0D0

• Direct more junior technical designers in creating features throughout the design and implementation process.

• Manage a growing team of designers and technical designers.
• See your work in players hands and iterate the features over time with player feedback.

• A desire to understand the moment-to-moment, hour-to-hour, day-to-day and week-to-week impact of the features you design and build.
• Display a high degree of discipline in following and creating technical design processes.
• A passion to create mechanics that layer together to create depth and complexity without overwhelming the player. 
• An understanding of the value of using Jira (or another tracking methodology) to organize work and communicate priorities and design goals.

• A desire to create guides, and other important documentation for more junior designers.
• A passion to mentor more junior technical designers in best technical practices, growing their skills through feedback and reviews.
