- Our team creates and authors various game content such as missions, competitive modes, open world content and a wide variety of other similar content.

The nature of our tools allows for very quick turnaround and iteration on ideas, whether this be prototyping something new entirely or working in an exciting new idea into existing content.

- Create missions and other game content using our in-house content creation tools.
- Prototype ideas for new content.
- Maintain content by fixing bugs, implementing feedback, identifying potential issues.
- Work with Lead Designers to develop content further and iterate on ideas.
- Play and provide constructive / detailed feedback through notes or bugs, checking that the design is being implemented as expected in game.
- Maintain a detailed knowledge of specified designs and develop an overarching understanding of the teams' design goals.
- Work with other departments to develop, implement and maintain features within our content, such as VFX, SFX, Animation, Code, Script.
- Work closely with our script team to maintain and develop our content creation tools.
- Learn about and adhere to our internal systems, software and processes.
- Maintain documentation and resources in line with design updates and feedback.
- Manage competing priorities effectively ensuring that all relevant parties are informed of project status/changes.

**QUALIFICATIONS**
- Game Design or related degree.

**SKILLS**
- A broad knowledge and passion for game design techniques and standards.
- The ability to problem solve creatively within a constricted tool set.
- Can work effectively as part of a team or alone.
- Organized and efficient in workflows, can work well autonomously to follow up on tasks.
- Excellent attention to detail.
- Strong analytical and logical thinking skills to break down the structure of various content types and identify potential issues in advance.
- Excellent communication skills.
- The ability to multitask and work to deadlines.
- Ability to become quickly accustomed to various in-house software systems.
- Ability to work productively and collaboratively, respecting others' opinions.
- Comfortable in expressing thoughts and opinions constructively.
