Game Art/UI Lead Designer at Slide in San Francisco, CA

Do you find yourself playing games and grimacing at the poor placement of interface elements and inconsistent art direction?
Confident you could do better with one arm tied behind your back?
Prove it by joining the art team at Slide and help us change the face of online games.

We're looking for a top notch designer to dig in and define the overall presentation, interface, and art style on one of our games. You'll work closely with product owners, developers and artists to mockup and implement all of the key game screens and components of the game. You'll take a stand when great design is threatened by a request to just make a button bigger. And red. And blinking.
