Build interfaces that bring games to life.

At No Hero, we turn bold creative ideas into beautifully crafted, brand-focused UX/UI for video games. As an award-winning creative co-development studio, we partner with leading game developers and publishers to create distinctive, high-quality gaming experiences.

We're growing our team and looking for UI Technical Artists who love the intersection of art and technology. Whether you're developing your craft, ready to own features independently or bringing senior-level expertise to complex systems, there's room to make an impact here.

What you'll do

• Implement UI designs, menus, HUDs, widgets and animations in Unreal Engine 5 using UMG and Blueprints.
• Build reusable UI components & screen templates that support efficient, consistent development.
• Create and refine UI materials, shaders and data-binding techniques, including MVV, to bring creative concepts to life.
• Troubleshoot technical issues, optimize performance and maintain quality across platforms.
• Work closely with UI artists, UX designers, Motion designers and engineers to solve problems, exchange ideas and deliver polished in-game experiences.
• Contribute to better tools, workflows and technical practices across the team.
• Familiarity with C++ to troubleshoot the code.
• Senior team members will also help shape UI architecture, estimate complex features, guide technical decisions and mentor teammates.

Who we're looking for

We're hiring across 3 levels, with responsibilities tailored to your experience and strengths.

Junior UI Technical Artist | Approximately 0–2 years

You have a foundation in Unreal Engine and UI implementation, a portfolio that shows your potential, and the curiosity to learn, take initiative and grow your technical & communication skills.

Mid-Level UI Technical Artist | Approximately 3–5 years

You're confident taking UI features from design handoff through implementation and polish, solving problems independently while keeping teammates informed and involved.

Senior UI Technical Artist / UI Front-End Specialist | Approximately 5+ years

You can own complex UI systems, make sound technical decisions, improve development workflows, break down tasks and help others do their best work.

Across all levels, you'll bring:

• Hands-on experience with Unreal Engine, particularly UMG and Blueprints.
• An understanding of UI implementation, interactive behaviour and reusable systems.
• Experience with UI assets, animation, materials or shaders.
• A strong ability to work independently, manage your priorities, accurately estimate your work and take ownership of deliverables.
• A collaborative mindset, strong/ clear communication skills are essential alongside a genuine enthusiasm for working across disciplines.
• A thoughtful, solutions-focused approach and pride in the quality of your work.

Experience with MVVM, CommonUI, C++, performance profiling or PC and console development is an asset. Shipped commercial game experience, particularly AA or AAA titles, is especially valuable for mid-level and senior candidates. You don't need to tick every box. We welcome relevant experience from indie games, co-development studios and other interactive environments.

Why No Hero?

We're a team of wild-hearted, focused crafters who believe great work starts with trust. We value people who take initiative, stay curious, share knowledge and collaborate generously.
