Our Motive is to create innovative action games within iconic worlds where every player feels like the hero. Let's say that again-iconic worlds, where every player feels like the hero.
Our passion has taken us from imagining dogfighter pilots in Star Wars™: Squadrons, to re-creating Isaac Clarke onboard the Ishimura in Dead Space™, and now to building an original Iron Man action-adventure video game.

We believe in sharing our passion with our community, and with each other by having transparent discussions, by practicing an inclusive culture, and by nurturing a continuous growth mindset. Our approach feels simple, but it leads to the best work of our careers, and as a team, building unique and immersive experiences.

• Work with Gameplay Designers to ensure our systems and core gameplays support and feed each other.
• Write design documents and communicate them to the team.
• Prototype, integrate and maintain features and content using our in-house tools.
• Review the game against the design goals and identify issues and opportunities to improve the player experience.
• Give and take feedback from across the team.
• Collect and use qualitative data (playtest, usability, and customer feedback) and quantitative data (telemetry and analytics) to inform your designs.

Qualifications:
• 5+ years of experience developing video games.
• Experience working on progression systems and game economies is a plus.
• Familiarity with advanced game engines like Unreal, Unity and others.
• Experience working hands-on with a game engine to implement your designs. Strong technical background is a plus.
