UI DESIGN
What We Do
We design customer and user-focused experiences that are fresh and innovative, while problem solving by anticipating user behavior and hurdles. We approach the most complex of problems and address them with simple, intuitive, and useful solutions.
What You'll Do
Epic Games is looking for talented, experienced Technical UI designers to work on Fortnite. In this position, you will have a role as a collaborative team member implementing UI systems design in Unreal engine, building rapid prototypes, layouts, visual scripting, and leveling up our workflows. You will work with UX Designers, UI Artists, and UI Engineers to ship these features to millions of users around the world. The ideal candidate would have expertise in basic algebra and geometry math ("Game math"), game systems, and basic programming principles.
In this role, you will
- Debug blueprints/UMG issues quickly using various tools and techniques.
- Implement blueprint logic when presentation logic calls for it. Assist UI Artists where necessary to implement special presentation behaviour. Consult with UI engineers on what logic will be in blueprint vs native code.
- Find ways to assist UX, UI Art, and UI engineering in organization, documentation, and building workflow improvements
- Ensure assets/UI are within memory and CPU constraints. Learning to profile performance and the costs of UMG/Slate/C++/and texture memory.
- Work on UI Systems Design, break down feature/wireframe into necessary widgets, structures, and classes; increase UI performance by ensuring best practices are being followed by colleagues.
What we're looking for
- You can "translate" communication across departments (i.e., talk to engineering about UI Art needs, summarize technical issues, etc), but also have empathy for non-technical team members and the ability to empower others on your team.
- You have an eye for pixel perfect UI, translating and spotting various potential issues with mockups as you help see the designs into the engine.
- Professional experience using Adobe Suite (especially Photoshop, Illustrator a plus), have engine experience (Custom engine, Unity, UE4, Lumberyard, Snowdrop, etc.), and an understanding of game industry 3D-package experience (3D Studio, Maya, etc.).
- You are a logical problem solver who pays a lot of attention to detail and has excellent written and communication skills.
- Bonus points: UI work on 2+ AAA game titles, C++, scripting experience, experience with building materials/shaders in UE
- 3-6+ years of experience in building UI and experiences in game engines and across multiple platforms (mobile, web, pc, consoles). Or similar experiences that have transferable years of experience.
- 2+ years of experience shipping updates and new features to a user base on a regular cadence. Or similar experiences that have transferable years of experience.
If you have a portfolio/reel/website you'd like to share, please hyperlink it to your resume, or submit it as an attachment with your application.
This role is open to multiple locations across North America, UK, and Europe (including CA and WA).
