Senior Product Designer

Join Guerrilla's Decima Engine Team

Our team

Guerrilla's Decima Engine team is on a mission to create beautifully-crafted content authoring tools that meet the needs of world-class content creators and developers. Our Product Design department is responsible for the proprietary Decima Engine and tooling ecosystem.

Decima is used both at Guerrilla and by hundreds of artists and designers externally to develop some of the world’s most extraordinary open-world games. It's a comprehensive native desktop application encompassing a 3D and 2D world editor, asset browser, node-based editors, a sequencer timeline, review tools, localization, and sound design pipelines.

About the Role

Our users are at the top of their respective crafts, and they expect tooling that is too. As a Product Designer on Decima you will contribute to all aspects of the end user experience. You will lead discovery and understanding efforts to inform our product strategy, create well-crafted interactions and visuals for tools and features within the Decima ecosystem, and cooperate widely to cultivate best-in-class processes. You will be highly collaborative, spending the time and effort to understand our business and technology goals so you can better deliver long term and scalable product solutions for our users.

You will lean on your design expertise, diplomatic influence, and creative problem-solving to deliver elegantly simple user experiences for complex game and entertainment workflows. You will own and lead the Product Design discipline for Decima, including scaling the team and capability as the user base grows. This role would best suit someone with experience designing for Digital Content Creation (DCC) tools, game engines, and/or creative enterprise applications.
