Essential Skills and Experience



  • 3–5 years in game design, ideally on mobile, with a track record of rapid development and iteration with a team

  • Strong Unity skills and experience prototyping and in‑editor workflows

  • Solid systems and level design fundamentals, with clear communication of intent through blockouts, scripts, and data across a variety of genres

  • Experience designing for younger players under 13, with attention to readability, accessibility, cognitive load, and safety

  • Bonus: Experience using AI tools in design and development of ideas and gameplay
