Generative AI may be stealing all the career-related headlines of late, and while it is an area that is seeing unprecedented interest as well as growth, there are many other tech sectors experiencing rapid gains.
One of those is the AR, VR and mixed reality (MR) industry. A cornerstone of the forthcoming metaverse, which, despite Meta’s reversal on its stance, is growing. Numerous industries are dipping their toes into AR and AV, including gaming, manufacturing, healthcare, advertising, sports, entertainment, military logistics, education, retail and real estate.
A report from Global Data has found the global metaverse market is worth $82.37 billion this year. This is forecasted to grow at a rapid 33.6% compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) to reach $626 million by 2030.
As a result, demand is also supporting the creation of a host of new jobs, which include VR/AR/MR developers, Unity or Unreal Engine developers, 3D artists and modelers, hardware engineers, interaction designers, VR and AR content creators and producers, along with many more.
If you’re in the market for a new role across VR, AR and MR, then the Venturebeat Job Board is the place to begin your search. It contains thousands of great job opportunities, like the five below.
