What You'll Do

Epic Games is looking for a talented, experienced Principal UX Designer to help us design the future of Fortnite’s player experience and UI. In this position, you will collaborate with other Principals and Directors to craft a new forward-facing design vision. You will work closely with UX researchers to establish a dialog with players and help us understand what they want from Fortnite’s UI. You will lead efforts to build and standardize a set of design pillars, thematics, and principles that can guide our UX/UI team's future-facing efforts. You will lead the effort to define the quality bar for what great UX is and work to empower and mentor other UX designers within our team to meet that bar.

In this role, you will
  • Work with Game Designers to translate goals of future-facing Fortnite efforts into compelling player-facing experiences
  • Establish design pillars, thematics, and principles for Fortnite’s future-facing UI
  • Collaborate with Visual Designers and UX Research to level up the UX & UI of Fortnite
  • Create wireframes, interactive prototypes, and documentation that clearly convey ideas
  • Produce UX design work such as competitive analysis, information architecture, content strategy, user stories, journey mapping, and accessibility standards
  • Present and pitch designs to Product Managers, Developers, and Stakeholders
  • Lead efforts to resolve design discrepancies across Fortnite
What we're looking for
  • You have 10+ years of experience working collaboratively to design features and complex UX systems through to completion across multiple platforms (mobile, web, pc, consoles)
  • You have 10+ years of experience working in Agile environments and on multi-disciplinary teams
  • You have at least 5+ years of experience shipping updates and new features to users on a regular cadence
  • You’re a tastemaker in the UX design field. You have an articulate take on design systems. You come to the table with ideas on where you’d like to take the Fortnite player experience
  • You have excellent written and verbal communication skills with at least 6-8 years of experience presenting to team members and stakeholders
  • You are skilled with Figma, the Adobe Suite, and prototyping software
  • You are known for your ability to take complex spaces and boil them down into clear, easy to understand wireframes and prototypes
  • You have a strong online portfolio demonstrating user-centered design solutions and expertly crafted design systems, all with strong visual direction and interaction design
  • You’re highly proactive and able to work autonomously, but really enjoy collaborating as part of a high-performing team
