Improbable

Senior Technical Designer - Design, Metaverse

Our metaverse group helps our partners realise their metaverse ambitions. The team's expertise encompasses creative (concept and design), production (art and content), engineering (game development and Web3) and operations (dev and live).

At Improbable, you'll collaborate with some of the best in the industry. Together, you'll create unique, tailored experiences that stretch the boundaries of what's possible in digital spaces and virtual worlds – and help define what the metaverse can be.

Your Opportunity:
  • Mentor more junior technical designers in creating features throughout the design and implementation process.
  • Design and build gameplay features that set a standard for others to follow.
  • See your work in players' hands and iterate the features over time with player feedback.
  • Have heavy involvement in the creation of game systems, design processes, pipelines, and discipline.
  • Give constructive critique on the quality of the game design and gameplay experience.
  • Create high quality gameplay encounters and mechanics within industry standard timelines.
  • Own discrete areas of the game and execute on it with a high degree of quality, e.g.: combat spaces, quests, boss fights, systemic combat encounters, balancing, etc...
  • Why You're Made For This:
  • A desire to understand the moment-to-moment, hour-to-hour, day-to-day and week-to-week impact of the features you design and build.
  • A passion to create mechanics that layer together to create depth and complexity without overwhelming the player.
  • A passion to mentor more junior technical designers in best technical practices, growing their skills through feedback and reviews.
  • Strong knowledge of Unreal Engine Blueprint development and best practices.
  • Experience in creating gameplay encounters like combat encounters, boss fights and puzzles.
  • Able to self-manage workloads through Jira or another tracking methodology.
  • Able to identify issues and propose solutions that improve encounter creation process or discipline.
  • Able to create tutorials, guides, or other important documentation for other staff members.
  • Good familiarity with Unreal Engine 4 and its blueprint functions and systems (preferred).
  • While we believe the mentioned experiences could be important, we're keen to hear from people that have valuable experience to bring to the role. If you identify with the team and mission, but not all of the requirements, please still apply!
