Unreal Engine Designer Jobs at Rex.zone

Build immersive, performant Unreal Engine 5 experiences for games, simulations, and AI workflows.

Intro

unreal engine designer jobs are specialized roles focused on creating real‑time interactive content, levels, VFX, and UI in Unreal Engine 5. On Rex.zone, this hiring page connects designers with roles in games, XR, and AI/ML workflows where UE5 scenes power synthetic data generation, computer vision dataset production, reinforcement learning environments, and LLM demo experiences. Apply for remote, contract, freelance, full‑time, entry‑level, and senior openings across AI labs, tech startups, BPOs, and content vendors. Rex.zone curates opportunities, streamlines applications, and helps candidates showcase portfolios aligned to modern Unreal Engine pipelines.

About the Role

As an Unreal Engine Designer, you will design, build, and optimize interactive content using Unreal Engine 5, leveraging Blueprints, C++, UMG UI, Sequencer, Niagara VFX, and world‑building tools. You will collaborate with gameplay engineers, technical artists, and QA to ship polished experiences that meet performance budgets and platform requirements (PC, console, mobile, VR/AR). In AI contexts, your scenes and tools will support synthetic data generation, domain randomization, and RL environments used by computer vision and robotics teams. For LLM training and product demos, you will craft narrative‑ready environments, camera paths, and UI prompts that showcase model capabilities with safe, compliant content.

Key Responsibilities

Own design tasks from concept through delivery, ensuring iteration velocity, quality, and cross‑discipline alignment. Drive n‑gram‑relevant outcomes like real‑time rendering optimization, annotation guidelines compliance for synthetic datasets, and model performance improvement via better scene variability.

Required Skills

We look for designers who blend aesthetics, systems thinking, and performance awareness, with strong communication and documentation habits required for distributed teams.

Preferred Qualifications

Candidates who bring domain depth in computer vision, simulation, and XR will excel in roles connected to AI/ML training and enterprise demos.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the core scope of unreal engine designer jobs?
They cover level design, visual design, VFX, UI/UX, and cinematics in UE5, with Blueprint and C++ integration, optimization, and cross‑platform delivery. In AI contexts, designers craft scenes for synthetic data generation, computer vision annotation, and reinforcement learning environments.
Q: Do I need C++ or is Blueprint enough?
Blueprint fluency is essential; C++ knowledge helps with complex systems, performance, and tools. Many roles blend Blueprint‑first prototyping with targeted C++ extensions.
Q: How do unreal engine designer jobs intersect with AI/ML?
UE5 environments are used to produce training data, test model behaviors, and run LLM demos. Designers implement domain randomization, capture pipelines, and content safety labeling to improve training data quality and model performance.
Q: What portfolio content should I include?
Show finished levels, Niagara systems, material/shader work, UI/UX flows, Sequencer cinematics, and before/after optimization data. If possible, include synthetic data or RL scenario examples with annotations and metrics.
Q: Are remote, contract, freelance, and full‑time roles available?
Yes. Rex.zone lists remote, contract, freelance, and full‑time opportunities across entry‑level to senior. Employer types include AI labs, tech startups, game studios, BPOs, and simulation vendors.
Q: What tools and pipelines should I know?
Unreal Engine 5 features (Lumen, Nanite, Sequencer, Niagara), UMG, Blueprints, Perforce/Git, CI/CD, DCCs (Maya/Blender), Substance, and profiling tools (Unreal Insights, RenderDoc).
Q: How does Rex.zone help candidates?
