If you enjoy collaborating with many disciplines and incorporating feedback, while channeling clear design values, then we are the studio for you. As a Senior UI/UX Designer you will be working with the team to make it effortless for the player to gather with friends, get into a game, and celebrate their achievements.

Your passion and talent will help make what we’re building even better!
Moonshot Games is a new studio based in Irvine, California. We love games and believe in their unique superpower to create personal, unforgettable stories that bring friends and the community closer together. We are building a culture of shared ownership where everyone gets a chance to weigh in and help set direction for the game. Our studio is in its early days, which means there’s tons of opportunity to have a big impact on what we are making as well as in the overall direction of the company. Most importantly, we know our games will be at their best when a variety of voices, identities and perspectives go into their creation, so come join us!
