Job description

  • Lead architectural decisions and R&D phases of a browser-native 3D platform built on top of Unity WebGL
  • Define and implement the web technology stack, including Unity WebGL, WebAssembly modules, and JavaScript interoperability
  • Export existing Unity desktop functionality to WebGL, integrating C++ logic using Emscripten

  • Collaborate with product teams to translate clinical requirements into performant 3D tools
  • Work with backend engineers on real-time collaboration features, including data streaming and session sync
  • Participate in agile team processes, including weekly stand-ups, sprint planning, and stakeholder reviews

Requirements

  • Proven experience with Unity WebGL builds and plugin integration workflows
  • Hands-on experience compiling and integrating C++ or Rust libraries into WebAssembly using Emscripten
  • Proficiency in JavaScript, TypeScript, and modern frontend tools such as Vite, Webpack, or Rollup
  • Strong understanding of WebGL and browser-based 3D rendering constraints
  • Experience working with 3D file formats such as STL, OBJ, or 3MF
  • Knowledge of performance optimization and memory management in browser environments
  • Familiarity with Unity's interaction system and how to extend or interface with it in a WebGL context

Nice to Have

  • Experience with Vue.js or another modern reactive frontend framework
  • Background in medical software or regulated industries (HIPAA, FDA, etc.)
  • Exposure to collaborative multi-user environments, such as CRDT-based or real-time sync architectures
  • Familiarity with cloud-based processing workflows (AWS, Azure)
  • Experience with mesh processing libraries such as libigl, CGAL, or pmp in WASM pipelines
