Sounds exciting? 

 

About the role and about You:

Zwift is looking for a UX developer to join our team.  You will bring your technical expertise and design aesthetic to collaborate with our designers and implement UI in our MMORPG game.

What you’ll do:

  • Create XAML file based on the UI design mockup; create proof of concepts in C# in Blend with the UI design.
  • Collaborate with game engineering to help port the UI design to C++ game code
  • Collaborate with the UI/UX team to create, extend, and maintain a reusable UI components library
  • Support and level-up the game engineering organization with UI best practices and patterns
  • Maintain and extend existing UI screens functionalities.
  • Request and provide feedback to fellow UX developers, designers, creatives and engineers

 

What we’re looking for:

  • Strong communicator to build a bridge between the creative and engineering teams
  • Proficient in XAML/WPF coding concepts and syntax within Visual Studio.
  • Excellent understanding of C#
  • Experience with Figma, Photoshop, Illustrator, and other visual creation tools
  • Demonstrated ability to partner effectively with others and diplomatically resolve conflict
  • Ability to thrive in fast paced, ambiguous, team-oriented, start-up environments where learning and adapting is the norm
  • Ability to thrive and collaborate in a cross-functional Agile work environment, including the ability to embrace iterative product development 
  • A portfolio of work that showcases how you’ve done the above in the past

 
Bonus points:

  • Experience utilizing the Blend Visual Studio plugin for UI design
  • Good understanding of C++
  • Experience with NoesisGUI framework
  • Experience with Inversion of Control (IoC) and dependency injection design pattern 
  • You have deep enthusiasm for, and/or experience in, cycling, fitness, and video games 
  • Experience delivering results while working remotely with geographically distributed teams
  • You consider yourself a systems-thinker -- and you can give us good examples of why that’s the case
