  • Mobile F2P experience**, ideally in live ops environments.
  • Meta design experience**: Experience contributing to or shaping a long-term combat meta.
  • Character design experience**: Ability to design clear roles, abilities, and synergies within a broader combat ecosystem.
  • Strategic systems thinking**: Experience designing combat systems that remain scalable and healthy for long-term live development.
  • Analytical and tooling proficiency**: Strong skills in Google Sheets, experience working in Unity, and the ability to prototype and iterate quickly.
  • Clear communication**: Ability to produce structured documentation and confidently present design decisions to stakeholders.
  • Bonus points:**
  • Experience with **roguelike or squad-based combat games**.
  • Experience balancing **progression or economy systems**.
