Engage as a product UI engineer, collaborating with teams to enhance Rive, identify user pain points, and develop comprehensive UI examples for customer use.
About Rive
Rive is where designers, animators, and developers build interactive experiences. Design, animate, and code in one place. What you build in the editor is what ships in your app, game, or website. No mockups, no prototypes, no handoff. The real thing.
Companies like Spotify, Duolingo, LinkedIn, Google, and Fortune 500 automakers use our open-source runtimes to build once and ship everywhere — websites, apps, games, and vehicles.
With Rive, designers and developers work with the same tools. No silos. What you see in the editor is what ships in production.
This “Dogfooding” Role
The team is seeking an experienced product UI or Game UI engineer who can sit beside the editor team in S.F. build UI demos using Rive, while passing along feedback on how that process is going in real time to the Editor team (the team writing the Rive UI).
As one of the primary technical advocates for the end-user within the engineering organization, you’ll be experiencing the product as a user, identifying frustrations, suggesting improvements to user flows and interface design. You'll spend your time creating assets and in an iterative feedback loop with the Editor team, identifying pain points. You'll help define, evolve and champion the features that will make Rive the tool of choice for building interactive experiences.
By consuming the Rive editor you will build and maintain comprehensive examples of full experiences in Rive. This involves building UI frameworks and reusable component libraries/systems, implementing them, and creating examples to share with our customers.
You’ll also work directly with customers explaining how to set up complex UI models.
This role is different from our Design Engineers, you are not doing actual design for the product UI itself, but implementing things our customers want to implement using Rive and helping us find the pain points along the way!
