Introduction to XYZ

XYZ Reality are the creators of the world's first and only engineering-grade Augmented Reality solution, purpose built for the construction industry. Not only have we created this holographic technology, that sits within The Atom – a smart, site-safe headset - but we also provide implementation and consultancy on the Data Centre and Mission Critical projects that the AR solution is being used on to ensure that all schemes are completed according to the delivery timescales set out, and fall within budget - that's what we're here for!

Over the last few years XYZ has grown to over 120 staff across the UK, Europe and the US and is working with prestigious, market-leading Data Centre and Mission Critical organisations/construction companies to successfully deliver major projects globally.

Field Application Engineer (Surveying Engineer)

As an Engineer / Surveyor at XYZ, you'll be wearing the Atom and using it to eliminate construction and design errors on site, which would otherwise lead to costly and time-consuming rework. You'll visualise the design models in holograms through the visor, and provide regular updates of potential clashes/errors in what has been, or is to be, installed by verifying what you're seeing in front of you.
