Job summary

Cat Daddy Games, LLC in Kirkland, WA is seeking a Technical Designer to bridge design and engineering for free-to-play mobile games. You will carry features from pitch to live build, write specs, prototype in Unity, wire into services, and tune post-launch.

Ideal candidates have 5+ years in mobile F2P design roles, hands-on Unity production, and a deep understanding of monetization, data analysis, and live infrastructure.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of game design experience, with a focus on free-to-play mobile games.

• Production experience in Unity building mobile games.

Responsibilities

• Design new gameplay experiences including limited-time events, complete game modes, and mini-games that add variety and excitement to the core game loop.
• Own features end to end, from the pitch through a working prototype, the shipped build, and the live tuning pass that follows.
• Write specs that hold up as executable instructions: clear intent, explicit constraints, acceptance criteria, edge cases, and the failure states that separate a good build from a plausible one.
• Build, orchestrate, and refine agentic workflows across the design pipeline, covering research, competitive teardowns, spec drafting, prototype scaffolding, balance sweeps, content authoring, and telemetry analysis.
• Prototype directly in Unity so a concept can be played, and validated against live service systems.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to balance fun, difficulty, and monetization across your designs.
