Technical Designer, Mobile Games

Job Description

The Job

Warner Bros. Games Inc. seeks a Technical Designer for its mobile R&D team. Are you a designer who loves exploring bold new ideas? Do you embrace failure as a learning opportunity? Join us and invent the next generation of WB Games in beloved franchises like Harry Potter, Batman, and Wonder Woman.
On the R&D team you will be a core member of a small team working to bring early-phase concepts to life. You will design games and features, and you will help build them in Unity.

This role requires a strong design sense and good technical skills. You should be comfortable writing code and design documents.

In this role you will use your hands-on Unity skills to build exciting and fun game prototypes. You must be able to engage with the design at every level from the highest concepts to the gritty details. You are responsible for the feel of the prototype. You will work closely with a small team of experienced collaborators, and you must have the communication skills and experience to know what to ask for and when to push back.

The Daily
• Work with the R&D team to create and hone prototypes of games and features in Unity.
• Create game design documents for features and games to communicate concepts and define requirements.
• Create content for game systems and prototypes.
• Contribute to greenlight pitches for early-stage concepts.
