Mid Level Product Designer
We’re looking for a mid-level Product Designer with research experience to join our team and help build our mixed-reality world creation software, Volta Create.
Volta is a self-serve mixed reality creation platform for artists, that gives anyone the ability to design and broadcast experiential content that goes beyond the 2D screen and reaches into the metaverse. Volta integrates seamlessly into artists’ existing workflows, allows them to build new immersive worlds that were previously unimaginable, and can even let their fans have an impact on the environment, turning a broadcast into a living breathing place. What once required a state-of-the-art production studio and a six-figure budget is now being rolled out to top artists for free. We’re well funded, have just gone through the Techstars Music Accelerator programme in LA, and have worked with Grammy-award-winning artists like Imogen Heap, as well as Maceo Plex and The Blessed Madonna.
We’ve recently partnered with Beatport (link), Boiler Room, Anjunadeep (link), Mixcloud, and more. Since launching publicly on September 4th, we’ve already hosted large events in Ibiza, New York, Rome, and our home town in London. We’ve already received a raft of accolades including a finalist as TIME’s best invention of 2021 (results in November). Here’s our Techstars demo video (link) as well as Mojaxx from DJ City giving a first product review (link). You can also find a sizzle reel here
