Job-Zusammenfassung

Deine Rolle im Team

  • Design heroes and combat. Create hero rosters, abilities, synergies, and squad combat that are easy to learn and deep to master.
  • Balance the game. Set up the fundamentals of economy, progression and combat balancing that the game can grow on.
  • Prototype fast. Turn ideas into playable prototypes quickly, test them early and iterate based on player feedback and data.
  • Leverage AI. Use and drive AI tools and workflows for prototyping, content creation, balancing and analysis - and share your learnings with the team.
  • Validate. Contribute to market and player tests, interpret results and make clear, data-informed design decisions.

Unsere Erwartungen an dich

Qualifikationen

  • Squad RPG love. You know your way around the hero collection / squad RPG genre, play these games yourself, and can deconstruct what makes the market leaders successful.
  • Generalist mindset. You are comfortable switching between systems, combat, economy, content and UX - and you care about the game as a whole.
  • AI-first. You already use AI tools in your daily design work and are curious to push what is possible with them.
  • Hands-on. You bring your ideas to life yourself by using the available tools for prototyping.
  • Comfortable with ambiguity. You thrive in an experimental environment where concepts change and decisions are made fast.
  • English as company language. You are open-minded, confident working in a multicultural environment and eager to use your English skills every day.

Erfahrung

  • Professional expertise. You have worked 5+ years as a Game Designer and have successfully shipped or taken at least one game through early development (concept, prototype, soft launch or validation).
  • Balancing fundamentals. You have hands-on experience with spreadsheets and balancing models for combat, progression, and economy.

Unser Angebot

  • Career opportunities. Level up with excellent training and development opportunities, such as online trainings, InnoVersity and conferences.
  • Outstanding benefits. Get 28 vacation days, a sabbatical, mobile device, contribution to your public transport ticket, and more.

  • Hybrid Working Model. We offer our colleagues the flexibility to choose between working from home and our modern offices in central Hamburg. With regular times planned together at the office during our Office Days, we keep up our unique InnoGames spirit!
