At Ubisoft Saguenay, we are a key pillar in the development of Rainbow Six Siege , one of the most successful tactical shooters in the world. We are currently seeking a highly analytical and creative UX Designer to join our team and elevate the player experience.
Ubisoft is more than just a gaming company; it is a global leader in entertainment. We believe that diverse perspectives are the fuel for innovation, helping both our players and our teams thrive.

By joining Ubisoft Saguenay, you become part of a community that values curiosity, collaboration, and the drive to “create the unknown.” We provide a playground for professionals who want to push the boundaries of what is possible in interactive entertainment, particularly within the competitive and constantly evolving ecosystem of Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege .
As a UX Designer at Ubisoft Saguenay, you will be the primary architect of the user journey for Rainbow Six Siege . Your mission is to shape clear, intuitive, and high-performance interfaces and interactive systems. Your work will span the core pillars of the game’s “out-of-game” experience, including complex menus, monetization/shop features, social systems, and deep character customization flows.
This role requires a unique blend of psychological insight and technical design. Key Responsibilities as UX Designer
Interaction Design & Architecture
Map out comprehensive user flows and interaction paths for the main game menus, in-game shop, and social systems.
Design wireframes and interactive prototypes that prioritize usability, cognitive load management, and aesthetic harmony.
Collaborate daily with UI Artists , Gameplay Programmers , Backend Engineers , and the Graphics Team Leader to ensure feature feasibility and visual excellence.
Serve as the “Voice of the User” during feature design meetings, ensuring that technical implementations never compromise the player experience.
User-Centered Research & Data Analysis
Apply rigorous User-Centered Design (UCD) methodologies, including user research, competitive benchmarking, and usability testing.
Analyze player data and feedback loops to validate design hypotheses and identify friction points in existing systems.
Participate in iterative testing cycles, translating playtest results into actionable design refinements.
Create and maintain detailed UX Documentation (logic flows, wireframe specs, annotations) to serve as a single source of truth for the development team.
Utilize industry-standard tools—specifically Figma and Miro —to document, explore, and communicate design solutions.
Required Qualifications & Technical Skills as UX Designer
Interaction Design: Strong grasp of interaction principles, ensuring that feedback, affordance, and mapping are consistently applied.
Proven experience working within “V-model” or Agile structures alongside developers and artists.
Analytical Thinking: The ability to look at raw player data or feedback and distill it into elegant design solutions.
Communication: Exceptional ability to communicate UX thinking through high-fidelity visuals and clear technical documentation.
Technical Toolkit:
While not strictly required, familiarity with how UX flows are implemented in-engine is a significant asset.
A deep-seated interest in player behaviors, motivations, and the psychology of gaming.
A commitment to making games more inclusive by considering accessibility standards (color blindness, motor impairments, etc.) in every design choice.
Comprehensive group insurance (dental, medical, vision) and a proactive employee assistance program.
Generous vacation time and flexible working arrangements (within the office-based framework).
A vibrant social atmosphere with frequent team-building events and a “human-centric” management style.
Annual performance reviews and a profit-sharing program.
To be considered for this role, candidates must provide a professional package that demonstrates both technical skill and design philosophy.
