Job Description & How to Apply Below
As a Lead / Senior UX Designer contracting with Gamebreaking Studios, you will use your skills to own complex UX problems and create high-quality user experiences.
Gamebreaking Studios is looking for someone with considerable experience designing user experiences for games. You will be the first UX Designer at Gamebreaking and hopefully the first of many! This is a great opportunity for someone excited about the prospect of owning this area. We expect you to be comfortable taking ownership of your work and navigating a large organization without oversight.
In this role, you will begin on our largest and longest-running co-development team, embedded with a large, AAA studio. You will design the UX in an ongoing project alongside UX designers from our client, push for best practices and expand upon existing UX patterns where necessary. You would then push the design through wireframes and prototyping into helping the team create scalable UI.
Designers on small teams like ours are valued not only for their ability to design for the player but also for their flexibility and enthusiasm to contribute to other disciplines and give feedback.
We encourage you to apply even if you do not meet all of the skills listed here. We understand that your qualifications may shine through in different ways and can be based on unique perspectives and experiences.
Gamebreaking Studios is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We celebrate diversity, and are committed to maintaining a safe and inclusive environment for our team.

Duration and Employment Status
This is a contract position, but it is our desire to hire a full-time employee into this role, and build out this discipline. That decision will be contingent on our business needs becoming long-term, including either ongoing renewal with our existing client or other opportunities arising, as well as your performance in the role. The initial contract runs until Aug. 21st, 2026.
It may be extended or converted at that time based on the above criteria. You will be expected to work 40 hour weeks, without the expectation of overtime.
