immersive experiences that run across OpenXR-capable
runtimes/devices. Responsibilities Develop XR applications using
OpenXR (end-to-end: architecture, implementation, testing, and
iteration). Build interactive features such as: Input handling

swapchains, spaces, actions). Strong C/C++ and/or C# skills
(depending on stack), plus solid debugging skills. Experience with
a real-time engine or framework such as: Unity (C#) and OpenXR
plugin ecosystem, or Unreal (C++) XR pipeline, or Custom/native

rendering/perf constraints for XR (72/90/120 FPS targets, GPU/CPU
bottlenecks, latency). Preferred Qualifications Shipped at least
one OpenXR-based app or feature to production. Experience with
OpenXR extensions (e.g., hand tracking, eye gaze, foveated
rendering, scene/space-related extensions). Graphics experience:
