The Experience
We are the world’s first fully decentralized, Ethereum blockchain-based virtual
social world, built, governed and owned by its users. It’s a truly unique
ecosystem with its own decentralized autonomous organization, currency,
marketplace and system of property – and it’s growing fast! New creations are
added daily by creators who use both open source and proprietary developer
tools to make games, puzzles, scenes, artworks – whatever their imaginations
allow. Via their personal avatars, users attend live music events, conferences,
exhibitions, dance parties and other experiences every day of the year. What
began as a proof-of-concept for assigning ownership of digital real estate to
users of a blockchain is now an immersive, ever-expanding and richly detailed
metaverse, where the world is what you make it.
The Challenge
We are actively seeking for an experienced full-stack engineer (oriented to
frontend) to join our remote-friendly team creating the tools to build the
metaverse. You will be in charge of developing cool 3.0 web apps (dApps) and
