About Hololabs

Hololabs was founded in 2011 by researchers in intelligent systems and veterans from AAA gaming, and has developed a diverse portfolio ranging from theme park rides to mobile games and virtual reality. We thrive on technically challenging and ambitious experiences, and have won several awards for our success. The studio spends about half of its time / team on work-for-hire projects that are typically interactive installations, themed entertainment projects, or AR/VR apps for clients. The remaining time is devoted to internal video game and entertainment projects.

Our most recent game, Sky Haven, is a location-based mobile puzzle game that mixes mechanics from games like Pokémon GO with merge games like Merge Mansion. It features our proprietary sky-based AR system, map navigation with our own database of playable POIs, and an engaging alternate reality narrative. Prior games include a kids game based on a book series called The Wollstonecraft Detective Agency, and a breakdance battle game called Floor Kids, which was developed in collaboration with infamous turntablist, Kid Koala, and superstar animator b-boy, JonJon.

Location

While we support remote and hybrid employment, candidates willing to work at least periodically in our downtown office in Victoria, BC will be prioritized. We may consider candidates residing in Vancouver or elsewhere on Vancouver Island as long as they are willing to visit the office in Victoria, BC for on-site meetings from time to time.

Please note that we can only consider applicants legally eligible to work in Canada (Citizen or Permanent Resident).
