Principal Designer (UI/UX, Product Design, UI Systems)

The Principal Product Designer will lead architecture and execution of core product UI/UX systems, focusing on system-level design and multi-surface execution.

Responsibilities

• Architect interface systems for player, creator, and internal-facing tools.
• Prototype flows in Figma, Framer, or code-linked tools.
• Build and evolve design systems, token sets, and components with dev alignment.
• Lead execution on high-impact UI/UX projects from zero to launch.
• Define interaction logic, feedback flows, animation states, and motion paths.
• Translate narrative, IP, and functional architecture into interface logic.
• Mentor senior/staff designers and collaborate async with design program managers.
• Drive design performance in product squads, sprints, and spec reviews.

Requirements

• 7–10+ years in product or UX design with direct experience at system level.
• Experience designing complex, multi-surface tools or platforms (web/app/desktop/game/editor).
• Mastery of Figma, tokens, design systems, and atomic component architecture.
• Ability to think in flows, hierarchies, edge cases, and transitions.
• Can prototype independently—Framer, Protopie, Spline, or Unity UI a plus.
• Fluent in async feedback, team writing, and clear visual reasoning.
• Bonus: experience designing tools for creators, animators, game engines, or simulation interfaces.
• Sharp visual taste aligned with anime/futurist digital aesthetics.
