Requirements
We're seeking an Expert UI Engineer, to provide tech direction for our AAA multiplayer project and leadership for our team of UI engineers.
In this role, you will design and build flexible, scalable, accessible, and high-performance UI systems using modern UE5 frameworks (CommonUI, MVVM, Enhanced Input), while partnering closely with engineers and cross-disciplinary teams.
The ideal candidate has deep experience in all aspects of UI development – including hitch-free resource management, integration with latent backend services, support for a wide set of display devices and high frame rates, console-specific requirements, and live configuration.
Live Ops / F2P Experience: Proven experience working on a live-service or Free-to-Play game, with a strong understanding of commerce UI, dynamic content delivery, and player conversion funnels.
Action Game Background: Previous experience working on multiplayer shooters, action RPGs, or competitive games.
Responsibilities
Engage creatively with Design and feature Production to identify opportunities, challenges and cost of new features.
Direct the technical design and implementation of the game’s UI using highly supported / best-in-class patterns and UE frameworks.
Maintain robust solutions for asynchronous asset management and integration with latent backend services (e.g.
inventory, matchmaking, live telemetry) while maintaining a responsive user experience.
Ensure all UI implementations strictly adhere to PlayStation and Xbox certification requirements, managing platform-specific safe zones, user constraints, and input paradigms.
Manage UI performance and memory budgets.
