- Ability to articulate the nuances of abstract concepts and how they apply to complex, interrelated systems.
- Ability to synthesize feedback from team members, user playtests, and other validation efforts into product insights and rapidly iterate on designs.
- Extensive knowledge of games as a service and live operations – you know what good looks like and can build efficient design processes, workflows, and tooling to enable it.
- Enthusiasm for directing, mentoring, and otherwise elevating the people around you to do their best work.
- A natural curiosity and eagerness to learn - we believe this is essential to our ability to stay ahead of the market and value this over years of experience.
