Job Description

Teleportal is on a mission to bring creators together.

We build accessible, collaborative, and secure spatial computing (AR/VR/3D) technologies that rethink the way that people interact with their physical and digital worlds.

The low-level software infrastructure we are developing enables spatial computing devices to efficiently synchronize a shared world state and distributed computational logic via a novel protocol.

With our technology we are developing mobile applications that empower video creators to jump into CGI filmmaking. Using mobile augmented reality as an input mechanism, creators can animate objects such as virtual cameras just like their live-action equivalents.

We envision a future where nearly all interactions between humans and computers are made spatially, resulting in healthier, more intuitive digital lives. We believe strongly in data privacy and security practices, the democratization of tools, and robust software engineering. Ultimately, we are building the future of computing that we are proud to be a part of.
