• Lead the creation of prototypes to explore and resolve design challenges.
• Implement and polish new features and content using our proprietary tools and visual scripting.
• Utilize qualitative and quantitative data, including playtests and analytics, to refine and enhance designs.
• Offer insightful and constructive feedback to fellow designers.

• Significant design contributions on at least two shipped titles.
• Proven ability to write detailed design documents for features or content.
