UX Designer

As a Gameplay UX Designer at Ubisoft, you'll be the glue that binds game design, UI, sound, VFX, and other feedback channels to create a seamless and engaging experience. You’ll make sure content is communicated clearly and that navigation flows intuitively, so players can fully immerse themselves in gameplay. Throughout the user‑centric development process, you’ll focus on the game as a whole while considering the impact of every design choice.

As a creative problem‑solver, you’ll come up with solutions to prevent any (frustrating) discontinuity in the player experience and smooth out any unwanted friction that stands between our players and the enjoyment they are – and should always be – having.
