Stockholm
FULL TIME
November 20, 2024
Mojang Studios is best known as the creators of Minecraft, but we're also on a mission – to build a better world through the power of play.
Why play? Well, play is at the heart of everything we do. It's the blocky backbone of our games, the core of our development philosophy, and even the origin of our name. From the relentless experimentation of our endlessly inspiring community to the classrooms where Minecraft has become an essential teaching tool, play is the bedrock of our existence.
As a UX/UI Designer at Mojang Studios, your role is to help millions of players find the fun in Minecraft intuitively and easily. As part of an agile development team, you will focus on improving the usability and accessibility of our user interfaces while preserving the game's significant legacy. We need a designer who excels in communication and collaboration to lead the UX/UI design process, work closely with the team's producer, and manage dependencies. We highly appreciate attention to detail and openness to feedback. Our primary design tool is Figma, used for wireframes, mock-ups, prototypes, and handovers, together with our design system.
