The Position
Avalanche Studios is looking for a smart, driven and creative UX designer. When gamers talk about our games, they talk about over-the-top-action in massive open worlds. After we hire you, our fans will talk about something else, too – a memorable player experience driven by beautiful and appealing user interfaces.
Visual and interaction design are your obsession, and creating a smooth, accessible and meaningful player experience is your mission. Your specialty is to simplify complex ideas while inventing new ways to solve problems with design. You have a significant game culture and a comprehensive understanding of the current state of UX in videogames. You are technically savvy with a deep background in Flash, a flair for motion graphics, and a secret interest in procedural effects like particle systems.
We want you to join us to conceive, push and design the entire user-interface chain for our next AAA console and PC games. We want you with a knack for innovation: your work is going to need to look and feel innovative into the future. To pull this off, you’ll work closely with dedicated UI programmers and artists, and more broadly with the entire all-star development team we’ve assembled in Stockholm.
Required Qualifications
UX / UI design experience on at least one published console game
Strong Photoshop and Flash skills
The ability to conceive a user interface that isn’t just a glorified list of buttons – and the wisdom to know when that inventiveness is appropriate
An abiding love of open-world action games
Desired Qualifications
Familiarity with Scaleform
A fair bit of 3D modeling experience
Some background in animation
A great eye for typography
An appreciation for dynamic effects like particle systems or procedural modeling (maybe you don’t have the scripting chops to develop a chaotic system on your own, but you can produce strong concepts in collaboration with a UI programmer)
At least a bit of scripting ability, preferably in ActionScript or Python
