  • Mini-Game Development: Conceptualise and design 9 engaging mini-games that align with the core gameplay of the Civilization project.
  • Collaboration: Work closely with the European team, maintaining daily collaboration to ensure synchronisation of design efforts. Availability during European working hours is essential.
  • Metric Analysis: Monitor and analyse game metrics such as user retention, engagement, and conversion rates to guide design decisions and improve player experience.
  • Strategy Game Expertise: Apply your knowledge of strategy game mechanics to create compelling design elements that resonate with the target audience.
  • F2P Monetisation: Drive monetisation strategies in the F2P mobile space, ensuring they enhance player satisfaction and engagement.
  • User Feedback Integration: Incorporate feedback from players and stakeholders to refine the FTUE and onboarding process for the Western market.
  • Documentation & Communication: Create and maintain detailed design documentation, clearly communicating concepts, progress, and updates to the development team and stakeholders.

Qualifications:

  • Experience: Proven track record in designing and delivering successful FTUE and onboarding experiences for F2P mobile titles.
  • F2P & KPI Focus: Deep understanding of F2P mobile game design principles and experience influencing game KPIs.
  • Strategy Game Knowledge: Expertise in strategy game design, particularly in creating scalable and engaging mechanics.
  • Collaboration: Strong collaboration skills, with experience working across cross-functional and geographically distributed teams.
  • Location: Preferably based in Europe to ensure full availability during European working hours.
  • Communication Skills: Excellent English communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to clearly articulate complex design concepts.
  • Adaptability: Ability to adapt design strategies based on user feedback, cultural differences, and regional preferences.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Cultural Adaptation: Experience in adapting game content for different cultural markets, especially Western audiences.
  • Technical Skills: Familiarity with game development tools such as Unreal Engine.
  • Project Management: Experience in managing or leading design projects from concept to completion, with a proven ability to meet deadlines and deliver high-quality work.
