- Own and champion the use and maintenance of the Figma component library (components, variables, auto layout patterns)
- Partner with the design, UI art, engineering, QA and production teams to set the definition of done and improve existing features
- Iterate based on feedback, playtests, implementation realities, and console cert learnings
QUALIFICATIONS:
- 5+ years designing UX on shipped games (AAA/high-complexity preferred)
- Strong portfolio showing ownership of shipped UX (flows, prototypes, systems)
- Expert Figma user (components, variables, auto layout, prototyping)
- Strong knowledge of the differences between best practices for gamepad vs mouse/keyboard UX for games
- Familiar with console certification and its UX implications and limitations
- Experience with complex RPG gameplay systems UI and in-game shop UX
- Strong fundamentals in layout, visual hierarchy, spacing, and usability
- Comfortable owning decisions, improving design requirements, and collaborating cross-functionally
