Vapordex Studio
Careers

A small studio with senior work and proper ownership.

We hire slowly and only when a role is real. If your craft pulls you, and the idea of an eleven-person studio with no internal politics sounds energising, take a look at what is open.

What it is like

Working at Vapordex, plainly.

🇲🇾

Hybrid by default

Two days a week in the Bangsar South studio, three days wherever you are sharpest. Fully remote across Peninsular Malaysia is an option for senior roles.

Real working hours

09.30 to 18.30 with a proper lunch. Crunch is rare and never silent — if a project needs late nights we talk about it, scope down, and pay overtime.

🎓

Learning budget

RM 6,000 per person per year for books, conferences and courses. No approval forms, just keep the receipts.

🏥

Full medical, mental and dental cover

For you and your immediate family. Including outpatient and EAP sessions you can use without telling us.

📷

Equipment of your choice

You pick the laptop and external monitor. We refresh every three years or sooner if it starts choking on Figma.

🌏

Annual studio retreat

One week, somewhere off-grid in Malaysia or Indonesia. The agenda is whatever the team votes on.

How we hire

Four steps, no take-home tasks.

Apply

Email us with a short intro, your portfolio or github, and the role you are interested in. No cover letter theatre.

30-minute call

A short conversation with a senior in your discipline. Mostly to make sure expectations match on both sides.

Paid trial day

Half-day or full-day pair session on a real project, paid at your prospective day rate. You meet the team, we see how we work together.

Decision in 48h

We commit to giving you a clear yes or no within two working days of the trial. Either way we explain why.

Do not see a role that matches?

If you would be a great fit but the title is wrong, tell us anyway. We keep a real shortlist for the next time we open a role.
