Job description

What We Do

Put your design skills to work at a cutting‑edge company that challenges the norm. From character and level design to competitive gameplay and system design, help shape the future of interactive entertainment at Epic.

What You'll Do

Epic Games’ Fortnite team is looking for a Design Director to lead the vision for the Battle Pass, Fortnite Crew, and other pass products (e.g., Music Pass and other themed passes). You will be responsible for establishing the vision and directly owning the outcome of Passes across Fortnite, collaborating with peers in Game Design, UX/UI, Production, Art, and QA to ensure overall product success.

In this role, you will

  • Be directly responsible for the Pass product design and success, framing vision and goals for the larger team with an outcomes‑driven approach.
  • Guide design efforts for Passes to create a holistic player experience, including unlock systems, progression systems, rewards, and monetization structures, co‑leading feature development with UX/UI and Product partners.
  • Work with both 1st‑party and 3rd‑party experiences, such as Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN), to ensure progression integrity regardless of where players choose to play.
  • Monitor and maintain healthy play in Fortnite, providing direction and mentoring the XP system team, and establishing guardrails and a strategy for the XP system.
  • Attend playtests and play the live game to provide feedback, and identify practical solutions to problems and opportunities to incorporate into your team’s work.

What we're looking for

  • 7+ years of experience across game design as a senior leader overseeing pass‑type engagement systems; subscription experience is a plus.
  • Highly analytical – eager and comfortable monitoring data streams and working with Data Scientists, Analysts, and Product Managers to align on product goals.
  • Strong stakeholder management across the teams that make Battle Pass possible (Art & Cosmetics, Progression, Marketing, Product Management, Gameplay Design, Quest).
  • Deep experience with PC/Console, Mobile, F2P, and Live Service Progression & Monetization Systems.
  • An innovator in the space that tracks industry trends and defines new ones, thinking abstractly in spaces without precedent to define the future of pass design.
  • Demonstrated talent for empathizing with players and a deep understanding of player motivations, forms of play, and the effects of goal setting on play.
  • Interest in progression products in Fortnite, Battle Royale, or other multiplayer games, with an understanding of what makes them effective.

EPIC JOB + EPIC BENEFITS = EPIC LIFE

We pay 100% for benefits for both employees and dependents and offer coverage for supplemental medical, dental, vision, critical illness, telemedicine, Life and AD&D, long‑term disability insurance as well as weekly indemnity (short‑term disability) and a retirement savings plan with a competitive employer match. In addition to the EAP, we also offer a robust mental well‑being program through Modern Health, which provides free therapy and coaching for employees & dependents.

Equal Opportunity Employer

Epic Games deeply values diverse teams and an inclusive work culture, and we are proud to be an Equal Opportunity employer. Learn more about our Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Policy.
