Are you an AI Engineer with a passion for pushing AI to its limits? Do you like quick feedback loops and seeing your developments come to life quickly? Would you want to be on of the first AI Engineers working in 6DoF XR? We are looking for an innovative AI Engineer who has the knowledge to apply artificial intelligence to the world of VR/XR 3D Model reconstruction. This position will push the limits of what you think is possible in XR and you will help push it further.

Parallaxter is a Belgian innovative XR company, creator of PresenZ, a revolutionary immersive movie format, allowing the viewer to feel like being inside the movie as opposed to watching it on a screen.
Our PresenZ format enables six degrees of freedom, i.e. the ability to move and change perspective  inside a pre-recorded content. This brings both perfect immersion without any cybersickness and a visual quality on par with Hollywood blockbusters. Come join us on our mission to build the future of Movies.
