    • Champion the player perspective to ensure every feature strengthens satisfaction, clarity, and enjoyment, collaborating closely with the Game design and UI Art teams. 
    • Turn user research and playtest feedback into focused, high-impact design improvements.
    • Elevate UX craft across the team by driving best practices, principles, and quality standards.
What we're looking for :
    • 5+ years of experience as a UX Designer in games (engine experience a plus).
    • Deep understanding of player‑centered UX and player behavior.
    • Strong problem‑solver with a sharp eye for detail.
    • Clear communicator who thrives in team settings.
