The UI/UX Designer will design and build the interfaces players use to read, decide, and navigate The Conformist's political world. UI carries most of the player experience — dialogue, documents, maps, decision screens, and the systems behind them — so the role covers both how the interface looks and how it feels to use. Given the size of the team, the role also carries pipeline ownership, helping shape how UI is designed, implemented, and maintained across the project.
