Participation in at least two AAA titles and a strong portfolio with polished, well‑structured levels.
Deep understanding of gameplay systems, mechanics, narrative design, and player psychology, with the ability to balance difficulty and pacing.
Experience with scripting and advanced tools to create dynamic, interactive environments.
Ability to collaborate effectively with art, programming, sound, and narrative teams; strong communication and receptiveness to feedback.
Solid time‑management skills, ability to work with deadlines, and iterate based on testing and feedback.
Knowledge of Unreal, Unity, CryEngine, or proprietary engines; strong scripting/programming skills for events, triggers, and AI behaviors.

Nice to Have

Experience designing levels across multiple genres and building immersive environments through environmental storytelling.
Ability to motivate and support the team, mentor junior designers, and provide constructive feedback.
Proactive problem-solving and flexibility in handling various design challenges (combat, narrative, puzzles).
Strong conflict-resolution skills and the ability to maintain a positive, productive team environment.
