Job Description
We are seeking a visionary Senior 2D/3D Graphics Engineer to lead the visual evolution of our platform. At Aether Visual Systems, we believe that web experiences should be indistinguishable from native applications, pushing the boundaries of browser-based rendering. You will work at the intersection of art and code, crafting stunning visual effects and high-performance rendering pipelines that delight our users.
Why Join Us?
- Work on cutting-edge WebGL and Three.js projects that scale to millions of users.
- Competitive compensation package and comprehensive benefits.
- Flexible remote-first culture with a San Francisco hub.
Key Responsibilities:
Responsibilities
- Architect and implement high-performance 2D/3D rendering engines using WebGL, Three.js, and custom shaders (GLSL/HLSL).
- Optimize rendering pipelines to ensure 60fps performance across a wide range of devices and network conditions.
- Collaborate with product designers and frontend developers to translate high-fidelity visual concepts into code.
- Debug complex graphics issues, memory leaks, and GPU profiling bottlenecks.
- Contribute to the open-source WebGL ecosystem and share knowledge with the engineering team.
- Experiment with novel rendering techniques, including post-processing, particle systems, and physics simulations.
Qualifications
- 5+ years of professional experience in computer graphics, game development, or interactive web technologies.
- Deep expertise in WebGL, Three.js, Babylon.js, or similar libraries.
- Proficiency in writing and optimizing GLSL, HLSL, or MSL shaders.
- Strong understanding of computer graphics mathematics, linear algebra, and 3D modeling concepts.
- Experience with performance profiling tools (Chrome DevTools, RenderDoc, NVIDIA Nsight).
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, or a related field.
