What You’ll Do

• Lead the product vision by leading new app ideation, prototyping and development for commercially viable products with a hybrid monetisation model

• The task involves a lot of coordination and collaboration between various domain experts, so solid communication and people skills are required
• Proven experience in leading the creation of commercially viable mobile apps with a strong UX foundation
• Passion for creating experiences that are both fun and effective
• Deep understanding of user-centered and gamified design principles
• Fluency with tools like Figma, Sketch, ProtoPie, Zeplin, etc.
• Strong storytelling skills – turning fuzzy ideas into concrete, testable concepts
• A portfolio that shows you can create both the fun and the function
• Excellent English communication skills

Bonus Points

• Experience designing for game-like systems or ed-tech
• Familiarity with Unity and UI pipelines
