About the Role

- Own UX for new game prototypes, ensuring mechanics are intuitive and easy to onboard into.
- Translate game design and monetization requirements into clear, player-friendly interfaces.
- Collaborate closely with artists, game designers, product managers, and engineers.
- Work independently to scope, prioritize, and own delivery of work.
- Report directly to the Creative Director of New Games.
