• Be forward thinking and self sufficient in terms of finding ways to improve the design of the player’s experience across the entire game.
• You will create and iterate on UX documentation and prototypes for many different systems for the game.
• Embody pragmatic game development values – valuing prioritization and making hard but necessary tradeoffs
• Serve as an expert advocate for improving the design of our tool set & workflow.
• Help mentor and educate other disciplines on the value of UX, and lead by example.

 

Ideally, you will have…

• 5+ years' professional experience in game design.
