- Author clear documentation and economy models to communicate feature intent and tuning logic.
- Partner with engineering and BI teams to ensure telemetry hooks are in place and reliable.
- Evaluate and iterate on reward balance, progression pacing, and offers based on data and community feedback.
- Maintain awareness of F2P best practices and trends in the social casino and live service space.
- Support the long-term sustainability of Prominence Poker by contributing to live strategy, retention planning, and player experience goals.
- Collaborate effectively across disciplines and time zones; occasional travel may be required for project needs.
Skills, Knowledge and Expertise
- Deep understanding of free-to-play economy and monetization design, including balance between progression, engagement, and spend motivation.
- Familiarity with business intelligence and telemetry practices, including KPI interpretation, retention metrics, and player segmentation.
- Comfort collaborating with analytics and product managers to guide data-driven design iteration.
- Game engine experience (Unreal Engine and Unity) preferred; familiarity with source control and in-engine implementation workflows.
- Excellent communication and documentation skills; ability to express design intent clearly to cross-functional teams.
- Experience with Jira, Confluence, and spreadsheet modeling (Google Sheets, Excel).
- Curiosity and enthusiasm for poker, card games, or social casino experiences a strong plus.
Must Haves
- 4–6 years of professional experience in game design, preferably on a live service or F2P title.
- At least one shipped live or monetized title with meaningful contribution to economy or event systems.
