  • Knowledge in UX design principles, including user-centred design, information architecture, and visual design.
  • Strong understanding of mobile game development processes and constraints.
  • Experience in using Figma or other leading UI/UX design tools.
  • Proficiency in using Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign) for UI asset creation.
  • Proficiency in Unity or other game engines.
  • Bonus: 2D & illustrations capabilities.

Our Background. We are a new, dynamic games company based in Saudi Arabia focused on publishing, developing & investing in high quality, core mobile Free to Play and Play & Earn game experiences and studios across the world.

We Defer to Trust. We trust each other, even when we disagree. In this environment, you will work with your colleagues who will trust you to do what makes sense and give you the autonomy to do what is right for Sandsoft as only our game teams can make the decision to launch or shut down their project.

Everyone is a Game Maker. Everybody in our development team is first and foremost, a Game Maker and you will be no different. We encourage our people to use their talents where they have the most impact. We ask and give feedback proactively to inform our decisions. So while you are a master of your own discipline, you are also a key stakeholder and your role and voice is critical when it comes to concepting and designing Games.

We Live Our Company Values. We pride ourselves in hiring growth-minded people who show a motivated, collaborative, and entrepreneurial attitude, and who embrace our Core Values as the right way to develop something great together.
