You should be comfortable thinking through how an interface works, not just how it looks. A major plus if you are familiar with importing assets to Roblox studio. What You’ll Do

• Design polished game interfaces. Create menus, HUDs, inventories, shops, progression screens, and other UI elements that fit each game’s visual identity.
• Make player interactions intuitive. Develop user flows, wireframes, and interactive prototypes that simplify navigation, communicate gameplay systems, and help players understand what to do next.
• Design across devices and input methods. Adapt layouts for mobile, desktop, and supported console experiences, considering readability, touch targets, controller navigation, and accessibility.
• Build consistent, reusable UI systems. Create components, icons, visual guidelines, and interaction states that keep interfaces cohesive as our games expand.
• Collaborate through implementation. Provide organized design files, exported assets, and clear specifications. Work with developers to review the in-game result and resolve visual or usability issues. Big plus if you are able to import

• Make sure to include your portfolio link if you have one. Any open source projects might be of great value as well. If you don’t have a portfolio, you should consider making one in the future.
