About OrbiWorlds:
OrbiWorlds is developing a complete online ecosystem where players can create, share, and experience virtual worlds. Our platform includes user accounts, social features, messaging, creator tools, virtual economies, and much more.
We’re looking for a founding full-stack engineer to help build and expand the web platform alongside the core engine team.
What You’ll Work On:
- Frontend and backend platform development
- User authentication and account systems
- APIs and backend services
- Database design and optimization
- Marketplace and creator features
- Social systems including friends, messaging, and notifications
- Performance, scalability, and security
Qualifications:
- Experience with modern frontend development (React or similar frameworks preferred)
- Backend development experience (PHP, Node.js, or similar)
- SQL database experience
- Strong problem-solving skills
- Ability to work independently in a startup environment
Compensation:
This is a Founding Engineer position.
Compensation is equity only during our pre-funding stage. Rather than receiving a salary initially, you’ll earn meaningful ownership in OrbiWorlds through an equity vesting schedule.
Our goal is to transition founding engineers to competitive salaries, in addition to their vested equity, once the company secures funding and is financially able to do so.
If you’re passionate about building large-scale online platforms and want to help shape a startup from an early stage, we’d love to connect with you.
