About The Position

We are looking for an experienced Principal UX Designer to join our design team and help build and ship best-in-class UI/UX for our upcoming title. This role will report directly to the Design Director.

Requirements

• 10+ years of experience as a UX and UI expert and a track record of owning ambiguous, high-complexity design problems with minimal oversight
• Think in systems. Empathize deeply with all types of players and their needs, and find solutions that feel obvious in hindsight
• Shipped games, and understand what shipping actually takes
• Fast and comfortable working directly in Unreal Engine 5 (or a comparable engine)
• Built or scaled UX/UI standards for a team before, and enjoy mentoring other designers

Responsibilities

• Own the game's end-to-end UX: player journeys, friction, gameplay flows, and an information architecture that keeps things consistent while guiding and delighting players along the way
• Design and ship high-quality UI/UX at a pace that keeps engineering and cross-functional partners moving, working hands-on in Unreal Engine 5 and partnering closely with our UI Engineer to keep implementation aligned with UX intent
• Own production of UI assets, deciding the right mix of in-house craft, AI-assisted tooling, and outside support to hit the volume and quality the game needs
• Set the craft bar for the discipline: build and maintain UX/UI standards, systems, and style guides, and give real direction to other contributors working in the space
• Represent design in cross-functional efforts, mentor other contributors, and help push the discipline's tools and practices forward

Benefits

• Great compensation package and equity
• Medical, dental, vision, short-term disability, long-term disability, and life insurance. Believer pays 100% of monthly costs for these plans
• 10 observed holidays + 10 days for Winter Break and "Take What You Need" PTO policy
