About the role

Senior Product Designer

Own the product layer across gameplay-adjacent surfaces (everything outside the core puzzle) and the “feel” that connects them.

What you’ll own

Onboarding that teaches instantly (no wall of text)
Progression and a store that convert without nagging
Motion and feedback that make every tap, state change, and reward feel musical
A design system that keeps the experience coherent
Prototype and iterate on real, live surfaces by shipping coded prototypes

Responsibilities

End-to-end product design: research → IA → interaction → visual → handoff, owning the full arc on live products
Design motion and micro-interactions: timing, feedback, and the feel of every state
Build and own a design system: tokens, components, and states; treat quality as structural
Prototype in real code against a live design system using React/HTML/CSS
Drive design decisions from funnels/retention (D1/D7/D30, conversion, drop-off), including A/B testing when it matters
AI-native workflow: ship coded prototypes using Claude Code or Cursor; synthesize research with AI while knowing where human judgment is essential
Microcopy and accessibility as part of the craft (not a handoff)
Mobile-first instincts: touch, first 10 seconds, and why a free-to-play game feels worth keeping
Raise the quality bar and collaborate in an autonomous small team

Requirements

Shipped product design end-to-end on real, live products
Strong motion/micro-interaction craft
Experience building/owning a design system (tokens/components/states)
Ability to prototype in React/HTML/CSS with a live design system
Ability to interpret funnels and retention curves and turn insights into design calls
Familiarity with A/B testing
AI-native approach to create prototypes (Claude Code/Cursor)
Ownership of microcopy and accessibility
Comfort designing for mobile and free-to-play early retention

Nice-to-haves

Free-to-play / LiveOps surfaces, store, and monetization UX
Motion tooling (e.g., Rive, After Effects)
Designing AI-powered product experiences
Feel for music theory or rhythm
Design degree

Application

Submit a short note plus your CV and/or portfolio (or equivalent proof of shipped work).
