Senior UI/UX Designer

Role Overview

• UI/UX Design & Implementation: Design, prototype, and implement high-quality in-game and out-of-game UI using Unreal Engine’s UI systems, with a strong focus on clarity, responsiveness, and usability.
• Real-Time Gameplay UI: Build UI that supports complex, information-dense, real-time gameplay, helping players make confident decisions under pressure.
• Blueprint-Driven Development: Own UI implementation in Unreal using Blueprints, including widget logic, layout behavior, animations, transitions, and polish.
• Systems-Level UX Thinking: Collaborate with designers and engineers to shape UI flows for complex player-facing systems, identifying friction points and proposing effective solutions.
• Localization-Aware UI Design: Design UI layouts that are resilient to localization constraints, including variable text length, different character sets, and internationalization requirements.
• World-Space & Screen-Space UI: Implement both traditional screen-space UI (menus, HUDs, overlays) and in-world UI elements (indicators, tooltips, contextual information).
• Technical Collaboration: Work closely with engineering partners to integrate UI with underlying game systems, including data binding, state-driven updates, and performance considerations.
• Iteration & Polish: Participate in frequent reviews, iterating on UI designs and implementations to achieve a high-quality bar for usability, readability, and feel.
• Cross-Discipline Communication: Communicate clearly with design, engineering, art, and production to align on goals, constraints, and solutions.

Requirements

• Unreal UI Expertise: Deep fluency with Unreal Engine’s UI workflows, including Blueprint-based UI development and widget systems.
• UI/UX Systems Thinking: Strong understanding of UX principles as applied to complex game systems, including information hierarchy, player feedback, and interaction flow.
• Real-Time Game Experience: Demonstrated experience playing and understanding real-time strategy, MOBA, or similar real-time games, with strong intuition for player needs.
• Technical Awareness: Comfortable working alongside engineers on data-driven UI, including state-based updates and performance-conscious design.
• Collaboration: Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to navigate ambiguous problems and take ownership of solutions.
• Experience: Previous experience designing and implementing UI/UX for Unreal games.
