The Opportunity
As a Senior UX Designer at Eleventh Hour Games, you will own the structure, flow, and usability of player-facing experiences across gameplay systems, menus, and commerce. This is a product-minded UX role focused on scalable, intuitive interaction design, not UI art or engineering. Youβll translate requirements into clear wireframes, flows, handoff documentation, versatile Figma components and prototypes that give artists and engineers a strong foundation to build from.You should be comfortable designing for both gamepad and mouse/keyboard with awareness of engine and console constraints, complex systems, and production realities. The ideal candidate brings a AAA-level UX mindset, strong Figma skills, and the ability to turn high level ideation and direction into implementation-ready experiences that elevate the final product.
