Aglet today is a digital sneaker collection game, powered by step-counting and an ever expanding catalogue of virtual sneakers. Tomorrow, Aglet will revolutionize how we play games, how we interact with brands, and how the next Virgil Abloh will be discovered.

Aglet is powered by Onlife, a bold company and vision dedicated to inspiring the world to Play Life via a series of gamified overlays of our real, location based, context-rich lives, as we live them. We think we’ve only scratched the surface of evolving our augmented lives - starting with sneakers and streetwear. We believe that “the street” is where the community is - and today, the street is in games. We consider our current app only “gamified.” Our next steps will lead Aglet to provide vastly deeper challenges, storylines, and exhilaration from collection, trading, and creating.

We are a fully remote, creative team distributed around the globe looking for novel ways to bring the metaverse to life.

We’re looking for an up and coming hybrid Polyglot Software Engineer/DevOps Engineer for implementing solutions to help our internal teams implement and deliver the Onlife platform vision. This is the platform that underpins our digital sneaker game, the Aglet.app, and you will be helping us develop the tooling and ancillary services to make the vision of its future a reality. You will be working on tools to help LiveOps e.g. drop new in game assets like NFTs; and capabilities to help external product teams understand the health of their products and services via e.g. dashboards infrastructure. You will ensure that the tooling and services make other software engineers happy, with ease of use and the ability to leverage them without collaboration being key. You will be involved in the validation and selection of technologies to enable other teams, if you are (or want to be) a Polyglot Engineer, this is the role for you. Be part of a community on the cusp of catalysing a paradigm shift by joining our growing Onlife team.

We are a fully remote, creative team distributed around the globe looking for novel ways to bring the metaverse to life.

If this sounds like you, we would love to hear from you.

WE'RE BIG ON VISION AND VALUES.
Our vision is to create an onlife world that blends the physical and digital. Our values guide how we work, make decisions and engage with one another.

Open to Play. Think BIG and weird; Approach problems and ideas with wonder; fearlessly develop and deliver on interesting ideas. 

Get Clear. Understand the game you are playing; Ask for help and direction when you need it; Communicate clearly and take notes.

Get it Right. Freedom and comfort to disagree; Proactively share and show your work; Demonstrate vulnerability by sharing uncertainty and challenges.

Radical Ownership. Don’t wait to be told what to do - own your space and make things happen; Own your mistakes and learn from them; Give meaningful feedback to the person who needs to hear it.

Be Active. Show up and participate; Build a community; Invest in your own physical and mental well-being - when you need a break, take a break.

DIVERSITY MATTERS

We’re building a new platform that gives a voice to underrepresented creatives. To do that, we are building a team that models the type of world we're trying to create, one that is rich in different perspectives and backgrounds. We encourage all applicants to apply particularly if you are from an under-represented community or have followed an unconventional path to get to where you are - we want to hear from you!
