Description

  • Experience supporting UI across multiple resolutions and aspect ratios with a focus on readability, hierarchy, and interaction clarity.

  • Interest in accessibility, usability, and player comfort, especially for long play sessions and large-screen environments.
  • Experience improving or refactoring legacy UI systems while maintaining consistency with an established player experience.
