Senior 3D Technical Lead (Web-First)

Full-timeRemote (US preferred)Engineering

About BaseCo

BaseCo is building the next generation of real estate experiences. Our platform, BΛSE, allows home buyers to explore, customize, and understand homes in a fully interactive 3D environment before they're built. Buyers can upgrade finishes, receive real-time pricing, and continue engaging with their home after purchase through an integrated marketplace. We work with real estate developers to transform how homes are sold, experienced, and owned across the entire lifecycle.

The Role

We're looking for a Senior 3D Technical Lead to own and define the 3D platform at BaseCo. This is a foundational role with significant autonomy and influence. You will be responsible for shaping the technical direction of our 3D experience, from rendering and performance to tooling, pipelines, and integration with the rest of the product. You will also own the technical foundations of our digital twin system, including how buildings are represented, parameterized, configured, and rendered across many listings. You'll work closely with our product, frontend, backend, and infrastructure teams while serving as the primary owner of all things 3D.

What You'll Do

  • Own the end-to-end 3D technical vision for BaseCo
  • Define and maintain model ingestion pipelines (e.g. Sketchup / CAD → engine web/runtime)
  • Design and implement a high-quality, web-first 3D experience
  • Evaluate and select technologies (WebGL, Three.js, Babylon.js, engine-based approaches, etc.)
  • Balance visual fidelity, performance, and scalability in browser-based environments
  • Define pipelines for creating, optimizing, and delivering architectural 3D models
  • Experiment with emerging tools, including AI-assisted 3D workflows
  • Collaborate with product and engineering teams to integrate 3D into the broader platform
  • Establish standards and best practices for future 3D contributors
  • Help scale the 3D function as the company grows

What We're Looking For

We're less concerned with a perfect résumé and more focused on taste, ownership, and execution. You likely have:
  • Strong experience building 3D experiences that run in the browser
  • Hands-on knowledge of WebGL or modern web-based 3D frameworks
  • A strong visual sensibility alongside solid engineering fundamentals
  • Experience optimizing 3D content for performance
  • Comfort working in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
  • A bias toward experimentation and iteration
  • The ability to operate independently and define direction
  • Experience with game engines (Unity, Unreal), visualization, simulation, or architectural workflows is a plus—especially if you've shipped or experimented with web delivery.

Why This Role Is Different

  • You'll have real ownership to build the platform for the customer
  • You'll help define the 3D stack from the ground up
  • You'll work on a product where 3D is core
  • You'll operate at the intersection of 3D, web, and AI
  • You'll influence both technical and product decisions from day one
  • This role has the potential to grow into a senior technical leadership position as the company scales.

Compensation & Growth

This is an early-stage role with meaningful equity. Salary and benefits will follow fundraising milestones. The opportunity is designed for someone who wants long-term impact, ownership, and leadership potential.
