UX Designer

Do you want to make a big difference at a small studio? Paradox is on an ambitious journey to explore and expand on Grand Strategy Games, a genre we invented and want to take to new heights. To do this, we are looking for a UX Designer in Malmö to help make sure our complex games feel intuitive to play.

As a User Experience Designer at Paradox you will be helping us ease the learning curve of deep and complex strategy games on a grand scale. You will be a challenging force that will try to innovate and push new ideas, leading to better games that are more approachable while retaining their deep gameplay. Together with other designers you will develop style guides and methods for securing a better user experience for our players.

On a personal level we hope that you are driven towards innovation, not afraid to challenge the status-quo and able to inspire others by shedding new light on existing problems.

Responsibilities

• Create mockups, wireframes, and prototypes of new interfaces, and evaluate and improve existing ones
• Coordinate with designers, programmers, and artists and make changes to both UI and gameplay mechanics if necessary
• Share input and ideas around sound effects for interfaces to the Audio Director
• Drive innovation and provide a fresh perspective to User Experience in User Interface design
• Effectively document and present your designs to the rest of the team

Required Qualifications

• Professional experience as a UX Designer, UI Designer, or equivalent
• Fluency in English both written and spoken
• Familiarity with and/or interest in Paradox Development Studio's games and brands

If you have experience with feedback-effects, user-testing or any kind of programming that will be beneficial, but is not a requirement.

If you think that this description matches you, we highly encourage you to apply as soon as possible as we will interview candidates continuously. If you don't match all the requirements, please demonstrate how your passion, attitude and interest in Paradox might compensate for this.

At Paradox Interactive we celebrate difference and care deeply about diversity and inclusion. We therefore encourage you, no matter who you are, to apply for this job if you think you’d be a great addition to our team.
