- Design intuitive interfaces that support creators with varying levels of technical expertise, from hobbyists to professional developers
- Translate technical concepts into approachable UX through thoughtful flows, clear visual hierarchy, and user-friendly microcopy
- Pair with the community and support teams to understand creator pain points and use those insights to improve tool usability and reduce friction
- Create wireframes, prototypes, and polished mockups across platforms (Desktop, VR, Mobile, Web)
- Run lightweight usability testing (concept checks, prototype tests) to validate designs early, identify friction, and iterate quickly
Requirements:
- 3+ years of professional product design experience and have worked on shipping experiences, ideally for tools, platforms, or workflow-heavy products
- Strong UX instincts and know how to simplify complexity without sacrificing capability or clarity
- Comfortable working in Figma and collaborating with engineering to bring your designs to life
- Think in flows and systems, understanding how tools fit into broader user lifecycles and full product ecosystems
- Familiar with Unity, our SDKs, Blender, or other dev tools
- Proactive collaborator. Listen well, give clear feedback, and are energized by working closely with other teammates
- Care about empowering users, and motivated by building tools that support creativity, expression, and economic opportunity
- Understanding of trust, safety, or moderation systems that support healthy online interactions
- Familiarity with social VR, presence-based UX, or designing for avatar-based expression
