Senior Game UX/UI Designer at Peloton

Peloton Game Studio is looking for a Senior UX / UI designer. After the success of our first game Lanebreak (a music game for Peloton indoor bikes and treadmills) we’re now deep into development of a totally different style of game, which we think cyclists and runners in particular will love.

Your UX brain and UI design chops will help us elevate the craft of our fitness games. Our games engage, empower, and immerse players pursuing their own fitness and training goals. As such, this UX first role requires a blend of game and product design thinking. It’s a wonderful opportunity to swing for the fences and make a real impact. 

Our team is hybrid and remote. Around half of us work hybrid from Peloton HQ in NYC, and half fully remote (mostly in the USA). Collaboration is paramount within our company culture. The ideal candidate will relish the opportunity to problem solve and conceptualize alongside the team, share ongoing work, and actively seek feedback. Join us making the world a healthier place through fitness gaming!

• Maintain a deep investment in ensuring our players have the best possible experience while achieving their fitness goals 

YOU BRING TO PELOTON
