Job Details

We are the makers of casual mobile hit Love & Pies, which globally launched in September 2021 and has now found its way into the hands of millions of players around the world. We’re backed by Supercell, one of the biggest and best in the industry.

We make games for everyone that are snackable yet nourishing — built to fit into your daily life, but with the emotional depth of your favorite TV show. Our team always comes first at Trailmix, and our culture is built on both high performance and high care — we strive to be the best versions of ourselves, but always within an environment based on inclusivity, respect and safety, no matter who you are or where you come from.

The Opportunity

At Trailmix, we’re on a mission to create unforgettable experiences in our games. We’re looking for a Senior UI Artist to join our New Game team and help define & deliver a best in class style, visual language & UI for our new game. You’ll be working across disciplines as part of a small but mighty, fast-moving & collaborative team. This role requires a blend of creative vision & technical expertise, as you’ll be working closely with our cross-functional teams to craft a whole new UI & style guide and implement it in Unity from scratch. You’ll be a leading voice in shaping the game’s look and feel, having a crucial impact on a brand new, free-to-play mobile game.

The day-to-day:

  • Translate high-level requirements & creative vision into clean, clear UI designs that the wider team can easily understand and develop.
  • Design and conceptualize player-centric UI artwork & develop a style guide to a polished, visually appealing standard.
  • Create mockups and wireframes to explore and communicate design ideas.
  • Collaborate with designers to develop and refine user flows that enhance gameplay.
  • Prepare and implement assets into Unity, working closely with developers and tech artists to ensure efficiency and usability for others.
  • Actively participate in collaborative team discussions, bringing subject matter expertise, constructive feedback and a production-ready mindset.
  • Ensure maximum readability and player focus in all UI work.

About you:

To succeed in this role, we’re looking for someone who has a commitment to delivering high quality work, has a strong attention to detail and is able to balance artistic flair whilst ensuring a strong visual hierarchy & effective themes. The right person will have a continuous learning mindset and keep up-to-date with trends, best practices and evolving game design standards within the mobile F2P genre. We’re looking for someone who’s adaptable, collaborative and independent, balancing their tasks and priorities without being prompted.

  • Proven track record of delivering high quality UI artwork for F2P mobile games.
  • Highly proficient with implementing high-quality UI systems in Unity, ensuring consistency in quality and style across the project.
  • Experienced in collaborating on delivering seamless, high quality animation systems in Unity, with clear & concise documentation.
  • Deep understanding of what constitutes cohesive and clear design for the F2P mobile space.
  • Ability to adapt and refine artwork and animations, responding to feedback and creative direction.
  • Proficient & experienced with wireframing and user flows.
  • Demonstrable ability to render consistent, final 2D assets with a cohesive style, aligned to a creative vision.
