Job description

Front End Software Engineer, 3D Applications

Specializing in WebGL, Three.js, and immersive data visualization

Remote (Canada)

We’re building the tools that help companies make sense of virtual worlds — and we’re looking for a front-end engineer who loves turning complex data into immersive, interactive web experiences.

You’ll play a key role in developing SceneExplorer, our flagship 3D replay tool that shows exactly what happened in a customer’s immersive simulation. (Check it out: https://cognitive3d.com/product/scene-explorer/)

We’re a remote-first team based in Canada. We value autonomy, strong communication, and cross-functional collaboration.

About Cognitive3D

We build a platform that records, measures, and analyzes data from VR, AR, and MR experiences. Our tools help customers:

• Build better immersive products
• Understand physical spaces in new ways
• Improve training outcomes
• Quantify human performance in XR environments

What You’ll Do

• Develop and maintain 3D web front-end features using WebGL (WebGPU, three.js)
• Build immersive and performant visualizations integrated into our web dashboard
• Own feature development from design through implementation
• Collaborate across design, backend, and product teams
• Participate in code reviews, internal knowledge sharing, and technical documentation
• Continuously learn and evaluate tools, workflows, and frameworks

What You Bring

• 5+ years of experience in front-end development
• Strong background in WebGL or similar WebGL/3D frameworks like three.js or babylon.js
• Experience with browser-based 3D simulations or visualizations
• Solid web development fundamentals (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, TypeScript)
• Experience with React or Angular and state management (Redux, MobX, etc.)
• Familiarity with Webpack, Vite, or modern build tools
• Great communication skills, including technical documentation
• Ability to break down work into features, tasks, and deliverables

Nice to Have

• Experience with Unity, Unreal Engine, Godot, or PlayCanvas
• VR/AR/MR development background
• Experience with agile teams and DevOps culture
• (We use “agile light” — backlog, sprints, and t-shirt-sized estimates — and believe strongly in DevOps to boost developer velocity.)

Perks & Benefits

• Competitive salary and benefits
• Stock options for every employee
• Remote-first work from anywhere in Canada
• High-end Mac laptop with dual monitors and accessories
• Everyone gets a VR headset
• Home-office budget (chair, desk, etc.)
• Annual budget for conferences and learning
• Team meetups in Vancouver, Toronto, Whistler, and beyond

Apply via LinkedIn with your resume. Feel free to include links to your GitHub, portfolio, or any projects you’re proud of. We’d love to see what you’ve built.
