GAME DESIGNER

COMPANY DESCRIPTION

Raid Base Inc is a USA-based game service development studio, founded in 2020 and funded through Series Seed and Series A.

Our mission is to develop experiences that match the level of commitment and enthusiasm that connoisseur players put into the games they love.

A few attributes in great developers that we believe assist us toward this mission are:

• Personal ownership

• Good judgment

• Leadership

• Emotional intelligence

We are crafting an open-world, sandbox PvPvE game, in an original IP.  Players will build a reputation for themselves and for their crew through everything they do, building a stronger community that is tempered through adversity.

The Raid Base team is made of developers who actively play games, and we established this studio to begin a more intimate dialogue with our players.  If you are a developer who believes that studios need to have a deeper connection with and respect for players, we would love to hear from you.

Job Description

As a Game Designer, you will directly contribute to the many areas of development for Specter, and help mold the core game experience. As a builder, you will champion designs for a wide range of content within Specter through the entire development process, defining specs and building prototypes. Collaborating and coordinating with designers and other disciplines on the team, you’ll implement your designs for testing, seek feedback, and iterate continually until the design meets the initial goals of the spec. Finally, as a representative of our audience, you are expected to continually drive the experience forward to ensure Specter deeply resonates with our target audience.

Key Responsibilities

• Clearly communicate your design and its outcomes to designers and other disciplines alike for alignment and implementation purposes.

• Actively seek out feedback from designers and other team members for iteration and improvement on design specs and prototypes.

• Gracefully receive feedback from developers (eventually players) and effectively parse the information for iteration on your designs and see them through to completion.

• Take a holistic approach to your designs, understanding their impact and connectivity to the greater game.

Required Qualifications

• Deep analytical and critical thinking skills for accurate problem identification.

• Ability to abstract concepts and use creative problem solving to generate solutions for desired gameplay experiences.

• Effective communication skills to navigate a quick moving, dynamic, multidisciplinary team.

• Technical mindset to effectively implement and iterate on designs at a fast pace.

• Experience as a professional Game Designer for 3+ years or relevant experience (general game development, modding, etc.).

Desired Qualifications

• Expertise with blueprint scripting in Unreal Engine 4/5.

• Experience building mechanics in multiplayer PvP games.

• Active gamer, who plays and enjoys multiplayer games with PvP dynamics to a deep level of understanding.

  • Has been part of or led a guild in an open world pvp game.

We offer medical, dental, and vision plans that cover you, your spouse/domestic partner, and children. Parental leave and a work-from-home equipment stipend are also available. Balance between work and personal life is encouraged with flexible paid time off, and company breaks during the summer and winter holidays. We also make time to play, discuss and study games to bond and grow our understanding of our players as a team.

Base salary range between $100,000.00 - $170,000.00 USD (for CA, WA and some other states). In addition, stock options will be awarded as incentive compensation.
