The Staff Product Designer will own UX strategy for a no-code platform for game developers, emphasizing innovation and technical collaboration with engineers.
ABOUT YOU
We are looking for an experienced designer who can take ownership of UX architecture and strategy, someone who goes beyond execution and actively shapes how the product evolves.
The ideal candidate is comfortable on the technical side. They understand how software is built, can read a pull request, navigate Git, and communicate with engineers as a peer rather than a hand-off partner. We need a strong communicator and most importantly, we are looking for someone driven by innovation.

What We Look For
