# AR/VR Jobs

## The best of AR/VR talent comes to the CrediBLL marketplace.

Augmented reality and virtual reality are deeply engaging technologies that alter users’ approach to the real-world environment around them. In augmented reality jobs (AR jobs), professionals insert digitally created content into a digital illustration of the real world, while in virtual reality jobs (VR jobs), professionals create a completely simulated environment. Both technologies rely on a high-end user interface that integrates real-time simulation and interaction through multiple sensorial channels.

Multiple jobs are available in the AR and VR spheres. AR/VR Software Engineers manage the process of creating and maintaining high-tech software. Unity VR Developers collaborate with teammates to develop VR optics, while Oculus Developers work on gameplay prototyping and engineering. Finally, AR/VR Project Managers lead all AR/VR projects, ensuring timely completion of deliverables.

According to research firm IDC, total revenue for the AR and VR markets will grow from $5.2 billion in 2016 to $162 billion by 2020—which means that the hiring market for AR and VR professionals will grow exponentially as well.

## Must-Have Skills:

As with most of the careers in new technological fields, skill sets of candidates will vary. However, top candidates will have:

- Proficiency in technologies like JavaScript, Unity Script, and WebVR
- Hands-on experience with programming languages such as C#, C, and Python
- Experience in technologies like Unity, Unreal, WebVR, and OSVR
- A top-level knowledge of animation and audio designs
- A strong 3D mathematical design background
