• Integrate UI with asynchronous data sources such as client services/APIs, player data, and remote configuration
• Design caching strategies and resilient loading states to support unreliable networks and async responses
• Partner closely with UI design and UI art to deliver shippable, maintainable UI that matches specifications
• Debug and optimize UI performance and stability including frame time, hitching, memory use, and draw cost
• Establish and document UI best practices and implementation patterns for the team
• Support cross-platform usability across controller and keyboard-mouse input methods
• Contribute to team workflows through code reviews, ticket-based delivery, and version control practices

• Professional team workflow experience with code reviews, ticket-based delivery, and version control systems
• Perforce version control experience (strongly preferred) or Git experience
• Strong problem-solving skills and attention to usability and stability
