Lead UI Artist

Azra Games is recapturing the childhood thrill of storytelling with your entire toy box for modern AAA gaming. We are dedicated to one genre, role-playing games, and led by veteran designer Mark Otero (Zero-to-one director of Star Wars : Galaxy of Heroes, EA’s most successful mobile game of all time, with $1.5B lifetime revenue). Azra has assembled an expert team with decades of experience building blockbuster games. Our debut release, Code named ‘Project : Legends’, will be Mark’s ninth RPG. And his best. Azra Games believes in harnessing the power of technology, with a focus on generative AI, to radically disrupt & transform game development.

Overview

We're a fast-moving startup seeking an experienced UI Artist to join our team and help shape the visual interface of our mobile game. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in mobile game UI / UX, particularly with real-time combat systems and complex gameplay mechanics. This role requires someone who thrives in a startup environment—comfortable with ambiguity, rapid iteration, and wearing multiple hats while maintaining high-quality output

Responsibilities

  • Design and implement intuitive, visually appealing UI elements for mobile platforms, with focus on touch-based interactions
  • Create UI systems that support real-time combat, party / character switching, and complex mobile game mechanics
  • Develop and maintain a comprehensive UI style guide that ensures visual consistency across all game features
  • Collaborate with game designers to create UI flows that enhance gameplay and user experience
  • Optimize UI assets for mobile performance while maintaining visual quality
  • Prototype and iterate on UI concepts based on user testing and team feedback
  • Work closely with developers to ensure proper implementation of UI designs
  • Adapt quickly to changing priorities and pivot designs based on evolving game requirements
  • Contribute to multiple areas beyond UI when needed (marketing materials, pitch decks, etc.)

Requirements

  • 3+ years of experience as a UI Artist in mobile game development
  • Strong portfolio demonstrating mobile game UI work, particularly for games with real-time combat systems
  • Proven experience working in startup or small studio environments
  • Experience with games featuring party systems, character switching, or similar complex mechanics
  • Proficiency in industry-standard tools (Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, Unity / Unreal UI systems)
  • Deep understanding of mobile UX principles, touch interfaces, and screen size considerations
  • Ability to create and maintain comprehensive style guides and design systems
  • Self-directed work style with the ability to identify problems and propose solutions independently
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to articulate design decisions
  • Comfort with rapid prototyping and iterative development processes
  • Ability to make decisions with incomplete information and adjust course as needed
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience working on games similar to Genshin Impact, Honkai Impact, or other action RPGs with real-time combat
  • Knowledge of Asian mobile game design trends and monetization UI patterns
  • Experience with gacha systems, character collection, or equipment management interfaces
  • Familiarity with gesture-based controls and haptic feedback design
  • Understanding of UI animation and motion design principles
  • Experience leading UI initiatives or mentoring other artists
  • Track record of shipping products in resource-constrained environments
  • Experience building processes and pipelines from scratch
  • The perks of working at Azra

  • Competitive salary & equity
  • Platinum healthcare plan for you and your family paid for by Azra Games. Including health, vision, and dental!
  • Parental leave
  • Unlimited paid time off
  • Work that fits your lifestyle – Work from our studio office in Sacramento, CA, hybrid, or fully remote.
  • Occasional catered lunches and dinners
  • Office social events including happy hours, parties, and community service projects.
  • A generous technology budget to provide the best gear you need to be your most productive and happy self.
  • A packed snack room and loaded fridge
  • Dedicated Game Room for "Market Research"
  • An authentic office environment where you get to be YOU
