Who are we?
We’re Sandbox VR, and we’re the most advanced virtual reality experience in the world. Inside our rooms, we take you on thrilling adventures and transform you into new characters. Our experience is like the movies, except you’re actually with your friends inside the movie. We are creating the future of entertainment by building towards the virtualization of physical spaces and eventually becoming the portal to the Metaverse. We want you be a part of our journey and help us make that a reality!
Since we launched in Hong Kong in 2017, we’re now live in 13 locations and 5 countries around the world (we’re the #1 Activity in Hong Kong and Singapore on TripAdvisor, #1 VR place in China Shanghai on Dianping), and we’re quickly expanding. As a growing company we are looking for leaders who want to transform the entertainment industry and contribute to the cutting-edge experiences we are creating. We take pride in the relationships we are building within the community through innovation and providing a best-in-class experience for our guests. The opportunities within Sandbox VR are endless and we want you to be a part of this new world we are creating!
What will you be doing?
You’ll be responsible for planning, overseeing and leading cross team projects through to success . You will be interacting with both internal and external stakeholders, and managing multiple projects simultaneously. For example, new store openings, technology updates across all stores.
Project Planning: Develop project plans to ensure project succession as defined by timeline, scope and budget.
Progress Monitoring: Monitor project progress continuously to ensure milestones and deliverables are met.
Problem Solving: Reach out to stakeholders to identify solutions for problems that may occur throughout the project.
Review & Improve: Analyze and review project implementations to identify potential improvements or optimizations. Refine processes and standards to make sure the projects are completed as efficiently and promptly as possible.
Who are we looking for?
- We're looking for someone who has 7+ experience in technology project management.
- We're looking for a passionate person who is interested in overseeing projects from the beginning through implementation to success.
- With the problems that may arise during the projects, someone who is detail-minded and with good problem solving skills are also required.
- Someone who has good communication skills, is resourceful, organized and willing to learn is also a must.
- Someone who can work with different stakeholders, including vendors and in-house professionals to maximize resource and efficiency.
- We’re making the holodeck real at Sandbox VR. We expect this to be a very competitive market, which means we have to innovate as a team. You should be open to researching and solving completely new technology challenges nobody has solved before.
How can you really impress us?
- If you’ve been a team lead, we’d love to hear about your leadership philosophy and experience. We’re still early and it’s important that we acquire a strong engineering culture from our senior engineers as we grow our team.
- If you’ve been a project management, we are also excited to hear your experience. Welcome to contribute your experience to our product operations team to build processes and standards to drive better experience for our customers.
- If you’ve worked in diverse markets and industries, and have worked in polyglot language environments where there isn’t just one programming language used across multiple services, we’d love to hear about that too. We’re going to have to work with a lot of services from third parties in order to quickly evolve our platform.
- As a start-up company. We are open-minded to solve the problem any ways. We will surprised if you are also experienced in the different technology areas.
- Outside of your job, it would be a huge plus if you’ve done engineering work with cutting edge technologies as a hobby, such as VR/AR/MR, robotics / drones, motion capture, or machine learning. We have plans to work with all of these technologies as we grow our holodeck platform.
How do I apply?
If you’re interested in this role, please apply here, or find some other way to get in touch if you’d really like to stand out. We’d like to see at least a CV or LinkedIn, and a quick cover letter/email/blurb on why you’re the right fit for us.
Thanks.
