About SideQuest

SideQuest is the ultimate community for standalone VR. A place where developers and players around the globe can experiment, share, and get excited about the apps they love.

Developers (like us) are free to mess with mechanics and modes on their journey to official app stores, and players can safely explore thousands of titles across the weird and wonderful world of VR. The biggest collection, all in one place—’cause who needs limits, right?

It takes talent to make it happen, and that’s where our team comes in. Spread remotely across the world from Belfast to Beijing, we work hard over a four-day week to support devs, list apps, test, explore, create, and much, much more.

We’re deep in startup territory, so there’s a lot to get done. And sometimes we need to go above and beyond to do it. But each of us is trusted with the freedom to seize the initiative, unleash our inner enthusiast, build an exciting career in the VR industry—and have an absolute blast while we do it. After all, [mayhem + fun = SideQuest]

Sounds like your dream job? We want to hear from you.
