Base pay range

We are a Series A company filled with veteran game developers and entrepreneurs creating games using blockchain technology. Our vision is simple: we want to work together to create generation-defining games that fundamentally grant power and ownership to the players who play them.

Our team has decades of experience building games at the scale of 100M+ players. Our team hails from Epic Games, Zynga, EA, Riot, Scopely, THQ, Rockstar, and Activision, where we led $1b+ franchises like FarmVille and League of Legends. We’ve also been active as founders and investors in crypto since 2013 and are backed by world-class investors, like a16z.

We are a fully remote company, built on a foundation of clear communication, respect, and collaboration. Your expertise can make a lasting impact here at Proof of Play and we’d love to connect with you and learn more.

But, don’t take our word for it - hear directly from our founding team: https://www.beforeyouapply.com/team/early-stage-team-at-proof-of-play

We're looking for a Senior UI Artist to define the visual identity of our games. In this key role, you’ll collaborate closely with engineers and designers within a small, empowered team, crafting game UI using Unity’s new UI Toolkit.

We’re looking for someone adaptable and self-driven who thrives in a fast-paced, feedback-rich environment. You’ll join a senior, cross-functional team of engineers, designers and product leads where collaboration is core and hierarchy is minimal.

Everyone wears multiple hats here, so you’ll be trusted and empowered to make an impact from day one.

This role is a 6-months contract with potential to extend and go perm.

What You'll Do:

• Own the end-to-end UI art process, from ideation to final in-engine implementation
• Collaborate tightly with engineers and designers to bring UX/UI to life using Unity’s UI Toolkit
• Create polished, intuitive, mobile-first interface visuals
• Iterate quickly based on blunt, direct feedback in a transparent and open environment
• Help shape pipelines and contribute to a lean, high-impact workflow
  
  

What You'll Bring:

• 5+ years of experience as a UI artist in mobile games or related fields
• Strong portfolio showcasing mobile-first UI work, ideally across a range of styles
• Comfortable working directly inside Unity (no handoff-only artists)
• Familiarity with or willingness to learn Unity UI Toolkit (web-style UI system)
• Ability to work independently and thrive in ambiguity
• Strong visual polish, layout, and interaction design skills
• Clear communicator who can operate across disciplines
  
  

Bonus Points:

• Experience building UI in Unity using UI Toolkit (UXML + USS)
• Background in web/UI development
• Ability to prototype interactions or animations
• Shipped games using Unity
  
  

Benefits and Perks:

• Fully Remote across two continents.
• Top tier medical, dental, and vision plans 100% company covered
• Laptops + necessary equipment provided
• Paid Parental Leave
• MyTime flexible vacation policies

A final thought from our founder, Amitt, "Everyone is a player of games, and we believe that ideally starts with our team. We foster a diverse set of voices and want our team to represent the diversity of those who play our games. We believe that a wide range of perspectives will lead to a more creative and inclusive game culture. This is vital to our business—and it’s at the heart of what we do. Even if you’re new to this realm, we genuinely encourage you to apply. "
