Vue Frontend Developer

ZAUBAR, a Berlin, Germany, based start-up in the field of Augmented Reality (time travel, actually) is looking for an experienced Javascript/Next.js developer to join our team.

If you are searching for a cutting-edge area to apply your JS skills in, why not give AR a chance?

With WebAR technologies becoming more and more capable, we want to start developing for the web now, to be prepared when full Augmented Reality experiences can make the jump from phones to browsers.

We are not only looking for a person to implement this transition but also for someone to teach our existing engineers the secrets of the trade, to allow all of us to be able to work on the product, in the future.

What is this product I just mentioned?

Since its inception in late 2019, ZAUBAR has had the vision to establish a CMS & CRM platform for city tours, allowing Creators to replace what still boils down to printed pictures held up in front of participants.

With ZAUBAR, these pictures are digitized, accurately positioned at their place of origin and visualized in AR.

We found amazing partners over the past years to bring this technology to great use and we want to make it available to as many users as possible.

To support creators monetizing AR tours, ZAUBAR offers and constantly expands concepts such as scavenger hunts, Collectibles, web-based remote creation and vast AI-assisted workflows.

Ideally, our new colleague should bring experience with some or any one of them to know the ins and outs of implementation.

While we already consist of a team spread over Europe and the world, our main office is home to Berlin’s diverse suburb of Schöneberg.

We support, though not require, anyone interested to relocate to Berlin.
