About the job

We're a stealth-mode startup backed by early investment, building a next-generation VR experience that blends immersive gameplay, cinematic storytelling, and high-interaction design. Our debut project is a sci-fi puzzle VR game designed for standalone headsets.

We’re looking for a VR Gameplay Designer who’s passionate about crafting intuitive, tactile, and narrative-driven interactions in virtual reality. You’ll work closely with a small and experienced team of developers and artists to create engaging puzzles, environmental storytelling moments, and user experiences that feel natural in VR.


What you’ll do:

  • Design and prototype VR-first gameplay mechanics, interactions, and puzzles
  • Collaborate with artists and engineers to bring those designs to life
  • Balance usability, challenge, and narrative in immersive spaces
  • Playtest frequently and iterate based on feedback
  • Help define design systems and pipelines for future content

Required Qualifications:

  • A solid portfolio showcasing gameplay design work, preferably with VR or interactive 3D experiences

Nice to have:

  • Experience designing gameplay interactions that respond to sound cues or effects
  • Familiarity with spatial audio or environmental sound design in VR
  • Background in creating or implementing sound effects to enhance immersion
  • Understanding of how sound impacts player feedback, tension, and environmental storytelling
  • Love Cowboy Bebop



We provide H1B sponsorship.
