Who we are

The future of digital experiences is not a single app. It's a network of millions of virtual worlds and digital experiences people visit to play games, socialize and collaborate. Today, most of those experiences are closed and disconnected walled gardens.

Ready Player Me is a cross-game avatar platform for developers, players, and leading brands. We're on a mission to break down the virtual walls to enable more open and connected worlds, and any digital experience.

We started 2021 with 24 companies using our avatar system, and we are now trusted by over 9,000 games, apps, and leading brands.

Present and future

We are backed by top investors like Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), Plural, David Baszucki, co-founder of Roblox, Justin Kan, co-founder of Twitch, Sebastian Knutsson & Riccardo Zacconi, King Games co-founders, Konvoy Ventures, Endeavor and Samsung Next among many others.

Our team has built avatar systems for companies like Tencent, Huawei, HTC, and Verizon since 2014. We are working with well-known brands like Warner Bros, Adidas, Tommy Hilfiger, Dior, New Balance, and RTFKT.

With more than 9,000 developers and millions of users, Ready Player Me is the world's leading avatar platform, offering tools and services for developers to integrate into their games, apps, and virtual worlds. Users can customize their avatars to reflect their personal style and individuality and use them across thousands of interoperable worlds.

Come join us on this exciting journey and play a key role in shaping the future of how we represent ourselves in games and virtual worlds, while breaking down those virtual walls!

  • Analyzing data, proposing features, and enhancing customer experiences.
  • Collaborating with cross-functional teams (Product Managers, Analysts, UX/UI Designers, Engineers, and Artists) to shape the future of 3D avatars and virtual worlds.
  • Being hands-on: defining User Stories in collaboration with your team, managing the backlog, and prioritizing on a day-to-day basis.


What you bring:

  • 5+ years of product management experience in the digital industry.
  • Expertise in creating consumer-facing products.
  • A passion for crafting innovative, enjoyable, and highly engaging digital experiences that will shape our future.

  • A keen analytical ability to form hypotheses, derive conclusions, and suggest ideas. You leverage both qualitative and quantitative data to set goals and inform decisions.
  • A hands-on attitude, always ready to roll up your sleeves and dive in to push things forward.
