Job Description

We’re looking for a Senior UI/UX Designer (Mobile Games) to help shape the next generation of movement-based mobile gaming — where every step, sprint, or stretch powers in-game progress.

You’ll design player-centered experiences that bridge the real world with interactive gameplay. This role is perfect for a designer who thrives in agile environments, understands how to balance fun with usability, and can turn creative ideas into clean, intuitive interfaces.

You’ll own the end-to-end experience — from concept to production — collaborating closely with developers, artists, and game designers to bring gameplay and visual design together.

Why You’ll Want to Join

  • You will be paid in USD (bi-monthly: every 15th and 30th)
  • Up to 14 days of Paid Time Off annually (starting Day 1)
  • Observance of Holidays (based on your location)
  • 100% remote setup so you can work wherever you feel most productive
  • Collaborate with an award-winning indie game team backed by top venture firms
  • Be part of a studio building the future of fitness-integrated mobile games

What You’ll Work On

Design Player Experiences

  • Lead the UX design process from concept to implementation through research, flows, and playtesting
  • Translate gameplay and product goals into intuitive and responsive interfaces that enhance engagement
  • Use data, feedback, and player insight to guide UX decisions

Craft Beautiful, Functional UI

  • Design clean, consistent, and visually engaging UI elements aligned with brand and art direction
  • Collaborate with the art team to ensure polished implementation across iOS and Android
  • Deliver production-ready assets that integrate smoothly into the game environment

Collaborate Across Teams

  • Work closely with designers, developers, and artists to build cohesive player journeys
  • Participate in feedback loops, design reviews, and iterative testing to refine player experiences
  • Communicate design intent clearly through documentation, mockups, or prototypes

Prototype and Iterate

  • Build and present interactive prototypes or motion previews using Figma or similar tools
  • Work with developers to ensure UI assets are optimized and functional within Unity
  • Continuously test and improve designs based on user experience data

What You Bring

  • 4+ years of experience in mobile game or interactive UI/UX design
  • Strong portfolio showcasing player-focused UX flows and polished UI systems
  • Proficiency in Figma, Photoshop, Illustrator, or XD
  • Excellent communication skills — able to present design ideas clearly and work collaboratively
  • Deep understanding of mobile design principles and user-centered processes

Nice to Have

  • Experience designing or implementing UI directly in Unity
  • Background in fitness, gamified wellness, or social play experiences
  • Experience conducting usability testing and iteration based on player feedback
  • Familiarity with animation or motion for UI transitions

How to Apply

Please include:

  1. Your updated resume
  2. A short 1–2 minute Loom or video introducing your favorite UI/UX project and what made it successful
  3. A portfolio highlighting mobile or game UI/UX projects

Only candidates who submit both a portfolio and introduction video will be reviewed.
