Job Description

Hello! I am looking for a Avatar Customization System Programmer (UE 4/5, C++) for a Sensorium company.

Details about the company and the project:
Sensorium Galaxy is a Social VR platform created for the next generation of entertainment experiences spanning a variety of virtual worlds.

The first world, “Prism,” is the destination for immersive electronic music experiences in the metaverse. It is the stage for some of the biggest DJs in the world: David Guetta, Armin Van Buuren, Carl Cox, and many others. Each artist goes through photogrammetry scanning and motion capture. The resulting photorealistic avatars with life-like movements become the centerpieces in the production of out-of-this-world shows powered by Unreal Engine 4 with real-time raytracing (NvRTX) rendering in VR.

Avatars are key to the social experience of Sensorium Galaxy. Besides friends and like-minded people from all over the world, users get to meet Virtual Beings – AI-controlled characters with individual traits that can hold human-like generative conversations on any topic and become virtual companions in all their travels across Sensorium Galaxy.

Sensorium Galaxy is currently in a closed beta test on PC VR platform and will soon be entering PC Desktop (incl. cross-play functionality) testing.
