At Crytek we're building a scalable UI platform powered by a Design System implemented in Coherent Gameface (HTML, CSS, JavaScript).
Instead of building UI screen-by-screen, we are creating reusable components and architecture that power Hunt: Showdown and future Crytek titles.
We’re looking for a Senior Web Design Engineer to help build this system - translating Figma components into production-ready UI and shaping how UI is developed across Crytek.
This is an opportunity to build the UI foundation for multiple games, not just individual screens.
We welcome candidates from a variety of backgrounds and experiences who are excited about building thoughtful, scalable UI.
This position is based in Frankfurt, Germany.

What you'll Do
- Build reusable UI components using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
- Implement scalable UI architecture using Coherent Gameface
- Translate Figma design system components into production-ready UI
- Assemble UI screens from reusable components
- Improve the design to development pipeline, including tooling and workflows
- Collaborate with UX, UI art, and engineering to deliver a modern UI pipeline
- Help define and scale the UI platform used across future Crytek projects
What you bring
- Experience in web or UI engineering (rough guideline: ~5+ years, but we value equivalent practical experience)
- Strong skills in HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript

- Good understanding of UI architecture and performance
- Passionate about games and player experiences, with an appreciation for how great UI and UX contribute to gameplay across all genres.
- Experience collaborating closely with design teams
- Willingness to relocate to Frankfurt am Main, Germany.

We believe in the value of in-person collaboration while also supporting flexibility. Our hybrid working model includes three days per week in the office and the option to work remotely up to two days per week, unless role-specific requirements or business needs require you to be on site.
