We’re looking for a Level Designer to join a multi-game level-based studio, where players enjoy a wide range of experiences—from the eat-and-grow chaos in Hole Stars to the conveyor-based puzzle sorting of Jelly Busters.
As a Level Designer, you will collaborate with a team to craft world-leading player experiences and content. You will own level creation and improvements across features, prototypes, and game balance—concepting and setting up engaging new gameplay elements in Unity, finding practical ways to make content creation smoother, and using player data to tune and polish your work. You will also help explore modern, smart workflows (including AI-assisted design tools) to help us prototype, generate, and balance exciting content faster. This is an exciting opportunity to work on many new games with a team of passionate, experienced professionals on top-tier products.
