Stories have been told since the dawn of mankind. They were shared through images, songs, plays, books and movies. Most of the time, the audience was passive. At Articy, we believe that the future of stories is interactive. That’s why our mission is to shape the way that interactive narrative experiences – be it games, e-learning scenarios or interactive video formats – are created.
We are looking for a Product Designer to help turn our vision into reality. You’ll take part in the product design process, from first idea and prototyping of features to detailed interactions and polished visuals. You will be joining a small, passionate team that cares deeply about a collaborative environment and innovative design.
