Graphic Designer

At Decentraland, we are making sure the virtual world of the future is decentralized, open like the Web, and free of control by any single company or organization. To accomplish this, we’re building a suite of supporting tools and applications designed to help people create 3D immersive content, games, and applications. All of this is hosted and accessed on a fully decentralized platform. Our work touches web decentralized apps development, game design, cryptocurrencies, 3D art, decentralized server applications, new governances and networks and, eventually, new experiences that bring the metaverse concept outside of the screen.

To make sure we achieve those results, the Decentraland Foundation was created as a non-profit organization that leads the community by example, pushing the limits of our SDK creating tentpole events that engage our whole creator ecosystem. To assure our results, bringing the creative vision to life is super important, and a concept artist is essential to translate the mood and experience to the team. This role aims to find a professional that can work closely with our Creative Director, illustrating his vision and helping to set up the tone of our events.
