Taipei Taipei City, Taiwan Owl3D Full time $120,000 - $180,000 per year

About the role

Owl3D's mission is to bring the magic of 3D to everyone. Our Windows and Mac desktop client serves as the command center for capturing, real-time processing, and converting the PC screen into 3D. We're looking for a senior engineer to lead the next generation of this client across Windows and macOS using the Electron framework.

This is a hands-on role where you'll work closely with product, design, and graphics engineers to shape the experience of our core product — empowering creators and developers to see their world in 3D.

Responsibilities

  • Own Electron desktop app UI/UX.
  • Lead the architecture, implementation, and refinement of Owl3D's cross-platform desktop interface. You'll transform complex 3D capture and rendering workflows into an intuitive, elegant user experience that feels native across macOS and Windows.
  • Iterate and launch the app with the Product team.
  • Collaborate closely with design and product leads to prototype, test, and refine features rapidly. You'll help define product direction through experimentation, data-driven insights, and feedback loops, ensuring smooth releases and impactful launches.
  • (Can learn on the job) Use Direct3D to implement on-screen UI interaction.
  • Integrate interactive overlays and visual feedback directly within the rendered 3D environment. You'll work with Direct3D (and optionally Metal on macOS) to build real-time UI components that respond to user inputs and system events in the 3D space.
  • Raise the performance bar.
  • Drive desktop performance through profiling, GPU optimization, and efficient IPC design. Develop systems and processes to ensure smooth frame rates and low latency across diverse hardware.
  • Keep quality sustainable.
  • Establish build pipelines, CI/CD guards, and developer tooling that enable the team to iterate quickly while preventing regressions or performance drops.
  • Mentor & multiply.
  • Partner with product, design, and other engineers to review code, share best practices, and help grow a world-class desktop platform team.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience building cross-platform desktop applications at scale.
  • Strong technical depth in Electron, TypeScript/JavaScript, and/or Python.
  • Expertise in GPU/graphics pipelines, real-time rendering, or media processing.
  • Proven ability to debug, profile, and optimize complex performance bottlenecks.
  • Solid understanding of observability, monitoring, and system diagnostics.
