• Translate complex gameplay systems into intuitive and usable experiences.
• Participate in user-centered design activities including research, testing, and iteration.
• Gather and incorporate feedback from stakeholders and players.
• Contribute to the ongoing development of UI/UX standards and practices within the team.
• Continuously develop your design skills through mentorship and collaboration.

Your Profile:

• Solid foundation in design principles, interaction design, and usability.
• Some experience with UI/UX design through professional work, education, personal projects, or internships.
• Strong curiosity and desire to understand complex systems.
• Comfortable challenging assumptions and proposing improvements.
• Able to work independently and take ownership of tasks.
• Growth mindset with a willingness to learn and seek feedback.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills.
• Empathy for users and a passion for creating great player experiences.
• Comfortable working in situations with ambiguity and evolving requirements.
• Interest in video games and interactive experiences.

Nice to have:

• Experience working in the games industry.
• Familiarity with EVE Online or other complex systems-driven games.
• Experience with user research or usability testing.

What We Can Offer You:

• The challenge of working on ambitious projects with amazingly smart and creative co-workers.
• A multicultural work environment that encourages growth, creativity and innovation.
• Double workstation setup and flexible work environment.
• An active fun division that hosts regular events.
• An excellent canteen that offers a weekly breakfast and lunch menu as well as drinks and snacks.
