Company Description

MixMob is a crypto gaming experience powered by Solana, built with play-to-earn and a creator economy at the heart of its game loop

Job Description

We are growing like mad and are looking to hire a talented Lead Game Designer. We believe that all good things are wild and free, so we operate 100% remote. 100% independently.

  • Create an inspiring game vision and own major facets of the design, such as, core game mechanics and overarching game features. 

  • Develop prototypes and iterate to ensure designs are on point before going into full production

  • Iterate and evolve designs, based on regular playtesting and community feedback

  • Use qualitative and quantitative methods to validate and improve work

  • Re-master the player experience and collaborate with Live-Community Designers and Community Members alike.

Qualifications

  • 6+ years of experience working as a designer with medium-large teams in the video game industry

  • Experience working in a fast-paced, agile environment

  • Have led a design team of at least 5 game designers

  • Experience using MS Office, JIRA, Notion, and other design tools 

  • Experience with all aspects of game design discipline: concept, game progression, interface, monetization, and retention

  • Pride in creating a high-quality, addictive and social game feature-sets

  • Strong critical thinking skills.

  • Strong verbal and written communication skills, with an ability to organize game design workflows from start to finish

  • Experience or knowledge in the crypto space is a plus
