You’ll collaborate closely with UI/UX designers and artists to implement intuitive and responsive HUDs, menus, and interactive systems.

Partner with UI/UX designers and artists to translate wireframes and visual concepts into functional, high-performance in-game interfaces

Diagnose and resolve UI-related bugs, performance bottlenecks, and input-handling issues across the game layout
Participate in code reviews and maintain clean technical documentation to support a collaborative engineering setting
Technical Requirements
3+ years of professional game development experience, with a dedicated focus on UI
Solid experience developing user interfaces within Unreal Engine, specifically using UMG and Blueprints
Proficiency in C++ and a solid understanding of object-oriented programming principles
Experience managing complex UI states, input handling (gamepad, keyboard, mouse), and localized text systems
Familiarity with profiling tools to identify and fix UI-driven memory and performance issues
Non-Technical Requirements
Ability to collaborate across disciplines, taking creative concepts and breaking them down into explicit technical tasks
A proactive problem-solver who takes ownership of assigned features and drives them to completion
Solid communication skills, with the ability to discuss technical constraints and design trade-offs openly with non-technical peers
A detail-oriented eye for animation timing, layout precision, and overall user experience polish
