Job Description
Are you passionate about creating immersive, high-performance visual experiences on the web? Apex Digital Systems is seeking a visionary Senior 2D Interactive Graphics Engineer to lead the development of our next-generation digital platforms.
In this role, you will push the boundaries of browser-based rendering, optimizing performance for complex 2D datasets and interactive visualizations. You will work closely with product designers and frontend developers to translate static concepts into fluid, responsive, and stunning visual realities.
If you thrive in a fast-paced environment and have a deep understanding of the HTML5 Canvas API and WebGL, we want to hear from you.
Responsibilities
- Architect and implement high-performance 2D rendering engines using WebGL, Three.js, and the native Canvas API.
- Optimize rendering pipelines to achieve 60fps performance on a wide range of devices and screen sizes.
- Develop complex shaders (GLSL) and mathematical models to create unique visual effects and data visualizations.
- Collaborate with UX/UI designers to translate high-fidelity mockups into pixel-perfect interactive graphics.
- Maintain and refactor existing graphics libraries to ensure scalability and code quality.
- Conduct technical research to evaluate new libraries and rendering techniques that could benefit our products.
Qualifications
- 5+ years of professional experience in 2D graphics programming, WebGL, or Canvas development.
- Strong proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript, including modern ES6+ features and async patterns.
- Deep understanding of the HTML5 Canvas API, WebGL, GLSL shaders, and performance optimization techniques.
- Experience with 2D physics engines (e.g., Matter.js, Box2D) and animation libraries (e.g., GSAP, Anime.js).
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
- Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to debug complex rendering issues in cross-browser environments.
