Job Description

• Own the combat framework: define and evolve core combat rules, stats, damage formulas, scaling, and resolution systems. • Design character kits: create distinct, scalable abilities and roles that support squad-building depth and long-term expansion. • Develop systemic interactions: build and maintain elemental systems, synergies, and combat mechanics that create meaningful strategic choices. • Drive combat balance: tune and iterate using data and playtesting to maintain a healthy, evolving meta. *This is a high-impact role with ownership over one of the most critical systems in the game.*

Job Requirements

  • We are looking for someone with **5+ years of game design experience**, including **ownership of combat systems on at least one shipped RPG, strategy, or character collection title**. You’re a great fit if you have:
  • Strong combat systems knowledge**: Deep understanding of combat mechanics, scaling models, stat systems, and long-term meta health, with the ability to balance depth, clarity, and business impact.
  • 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**.

Benefits

  • 🏥 **Comprehensive Benefits:** Depending on your location, you’ll enjoy a range of perks such as insurance, meal vouchers, public transport, gym memberships, and more.
  • 🏢 **Paris HQ Access:** Enjoy a desk at our private office in a well-located WeWork building that will give you access to WeWork perks like rooftop view and designed coworking spaces.
  • 🌍 **Coworking Access:** You will have access to WeWork spaces throughout Europe, along with all their perks and professional office environments.

  • ✈️ **Team Gatherings:** We value time together beyond the screen. Join us for occasional team gatherings, off-site retreats (Workations as we name them) to connect, recharge, and celebrate.
  • 📈 **Performance Reviews:** We’re committed to your growth. Every six months, we reflect on your progress, recognize your achievements, and align on clear development goals.
