    • Collaborate with both artists and designers on ways to improve the game content implementation to take advantage of existing technology and drive to the best end result possible.
    • Collaborate with engineers to improve design workflows and bring gameplay intentions to life while respecting performance and technical constraints
    • Work with producers and team leadership to assess requirements and provide effort estimates and updates to help ensure the team reaches its goals successfully
    • Requirements
    • A minimum of 5 years in game development, with at least 2 years of Technical Design experience

    • Strong interdisciplinary collaboration skills, including verbal and written skills

    • An innovator's heart, keen to create brand new things that haven't been done before
    • A love of contributing to high quality, rich gameplay experiences
