About VRChat
What is VRChat?
VRChat is a social virtual-worlds platform where people connect, create, and explore together across VR, desktop, and mobile. Its consumer promise is simple — "Community, Always" — inviting users to "explore thousands of worlds, meet people from everywhere, and express yourself however you want." The scale is enormous and entirely user-built: "In VRChat, there are hundreds of thousands of worlds, millions of avatars, and they're all created by the users," alongside "over 200,000 Groups and a robust events system." The platform powers concerts, meetups, performances, and creator-run communities, with people connecting across time zones and cultures. As a company, VRChat's mission is to "enrich the world through immersive social connection" — to "bring billions of people together through immersive social experiences that transcend physical barriers." Its creator economy is central, returning "50% to creators," which it calls "the biggest cut out of any major UGC platform." Founded around 2014, VRChat has raised $100M to date with backing from Makers Fund, Anthos Capital, and HTC.
Where will I work?
Anywhere you like. VRChat states plainly across its open roles that it is "a 100% remote company," and describes itself as "a remote-first company, with a team spread across the globe." Every current opening is listed as location "Anywhere." The company pairs this with "flexible working hours in combination with core hours supporting real-time collaboration," so you get genuine geographic freedom with enough overlap to work closely with your team.
What is the VRChat team like?
VRChat describes its people as "builders, dreamers, and problem-solvers who believe in the power of immersive social connection." The team is experienced, including people who have worked at Netflix, Meta, Microsoft, Roblox, Google, Amazon, Unity, Spotify, Discord, Twitch, and TikTok. Five stated values guide how they work: "Be Bold," "Debate and Commit," "Better Together," "Own Outcomes," and "For VRChat." The culture leans collaborative and high-ownership — the company "fosters a diverse, creative, and collaborative environment where anyone can contribute to any of the ongoing projects or direction of the roadmap at any time."
Work-Life Balance
Flexibility, trust, and autonomy sit at the heart of how VRChat operates: it "values flexibility, trust, and autonomy" and believes "great work happens where you thrive." Time off is generous and self-directed — roles list both a "generous paid holiday schedule" and "unlimited/flexible vacation time," with flexible working hours layered on top of light core-hours overlap.
Perks and Benefits
VRChat backs its remote model with a solid benefits package, stated consistently across roles: health benefits; a 401(k) for US employees and Group RRSP for Canadian employees; stock options; a generous paid holiday schedule; unlimited/flexible vacation; and paid parental leave — all while working from anywhere in the world.
