Senior UI/UX Designer

At Secret Door, we believe some of our best memories come from shared experiences with friends. We make games designed to bring people together, and we're looking for a Senior UI/UX Designer who shares our passion for creating thoughtful, engaging player experiences.

We're looking for a versatile Designer who can bring together UX design, UI art, and hands-on implementation in a game engine. You'll help shape how players interact with our games, from exploring early concepts and refining user flows to creating polished interface art and bringing those designs to life in-engine. You'll have the opportunity to make meaningful contributions across the development process, collaborate closely with a multidisciplinary team, and help shape the player experience in games built around shared experiences and play. You would be joining Secret Door at an exciting stage of development as we prepare Shadowstone for Early Access in late 2026, and would play an important role in refining and polishing the game's UI/UX as we approach this milestone, with the opportunity to contribute to other projects as our development efforts evolve.

What You Will Do

Design intuitive player experiences by creating wireframes, user flows, prototypes, and interaction designs that make gameplay and navigation feel seamless and intuitive

Develop visually polished interface elements and help establish a cohesive visual language for game UI, from individual components to complete screens and menus

Implement UI and UX designs directly in-engine, working hands-on to ensure interfaces function as intended and meet quality expectations

Develop and adapt interface experiences for PC and mobile, with consideration for console where applicable

Evaluate gameplay and interface experiences, identify opportunities for improvement, and refine solutions through prototyping, testing, and iteration

Help define UI/UX principles, workflows, and processes that make design decisions clear and actionable for the broader team

What We Need

Professional experience designing UI and player experiences for video games, with an understanding of the unique challenges of interactive products

Strong UX design skills paired with the ability to create polished UI art

Experience implementing UI in a game engine, ideally Unity, and collaborating with Engineers to deliver functional, polished interfaces

Experience designing for PC and mobile is especially valuable. Experience with console interfaces is a plus

Proficiency with Figma for creating wireframes and interactive prototypes, along with Photoshop, Illustrator, or equivalent tools for creating and refining UI assets

Ability to take ownership of your work, navigate ambiguity, communicate proactively, and work effectively with a small, multidisciplinary team.

A player-first perspective with a desire to create interfaces that support and enhance the overall play experience
