Game Designer

Our Mission

We strive for greatness. This means we want our games studio to be the first globally competitive company built in India that can compete against the world's most prominent players, like Timi Tencent, Supercell, and Activision Blizzard.

Greatness will be defined by taking on difficult challenges and relentlessly pursuing excellence.

We seek greatness in the products we build (initially games), but more importantly in our people and the organization we build. We are not there yet, and we seek an exceptional team member who can help us achieve global competitiveness.

Role & Key Responsibilities

  • Whether youre an experienced designer or an up-and-coming talent, what matters to us is your skill, drive, and love for games.
  • Design Documentation: Write comprehensive game design specifications and feature docs that clearly communicate gameplay mechanics, systems, controls, and content to the team.
  • Quality & Polish Ownership: Drive the games polish and uphold the quality bar work closely with engineers, artists, and level designers to ensure every feature and asset meets our high standards and the game feels great to play.
  • Market Analysis & Research: Continuously analyze top-performing mobile and shooter games.
  • Identify trending features and design elements in the market and produce detailed, analytical breakdowns of reference games to inform and inspire our own game design decisions.
  • Manage Playtesting & Feedback: Organize and manage player feedback through internal and external playtests. Gather qualitative feedback and gameplay data, analyze player responses, and iterate on designs to improve the game based on real user insights.
  • AI Integration: Research and implement AI tools to enhance the game design process. Explore AI applications for prototyping, testing, and content creation. Stay current on AI developments relevant to game design

What Were Looking For

High IQ & Problem-Solving: High intellectual horsepower with exceptional problem-solving skills you approach complex design challenges with a structured, logical mindset and devise smart, systematic solutions.

Clear, Organized Writer: Excellent writing skills with a knack for clarity and organization. You can produce detailed design documentation and specifications that are easy for others to understand and follow.

Passion for Shooters: A deep passion for shooter games on mobile (and console/PC too) you love playing and dissecting games like FPS/TPS titles. Youre eager to play numerous games for research and have keen insight into what makes shooter gameplay fun and engaging for players.

Curious & Growth-Oriented: A strong learners mindset with endless curiosity. You constantly seek to learn new things, research design techniques, study games, and improve your own skills.

You embrace feedback and see challenges as opportunities to grow.

AI Enthusiast: Interest in artificial intelligence and its applications in game design. Youre willing (and excited) to study emerging AI tools/techniques and figure out how to incorporate them into the design process to boost creativity or efficiency.

Analytical Mindset: Comfort with analytical thinking and data. You can break down game systems or player feedback logically, identify patterns or problems, and back up your design decisions with sound reasoning (or even supporting data when available).

Detail-Oriented Quality Focus: An eye for detail and a commitment to excellence. You care about the little details that elevate a game from good to great, and youre dedicated to delivering a polished, high-quality player experience.

Demonstrated Skill & Achievements: We welcome junior as well as veteran candidates but you must demonstrate your game design ability. This could be through prior work on games (professional or hobbyist), personal projects, blog posts, mods, game jam entries, or any notable design achievements that show off your skills and creative thinking.

Please note: This position is for one of Playdawn's clients, and successful candidates will be hired directly by the client, not by Playdawn.

Our client is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. They are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace where all individuals are treated with respect and have equal access to opportunities, regardless of race, color, religion, gender, age, disability, or other protected characteristics. They believe that diversity fuels innovation and creativity, and they strive to create an environment where everyone can thrive and contribute to shared success.
