Gamifcation Expert

**.Job Title: Gamification Expert - AI-Led EdTech Platform**

**About the Role**

We’re reimagining education by replacing traditional teacher-led instruction with AI-powered tutors. In this bold new learning model, engagement is everything. We're looking for a Gamification Expert who can design motivational loops, game mechanics, and rewarding experiences that keep students coming back to learn — even without a human teacher present. You’ll work closely with our UX designers, AI engineers, education psychologists, and product team to make learning addictive, purposeful, and fun.

**Key Responsibilities**
- Design and implement gamification frameworks (e.g., points, badges, leaderboards, levels, challenges, streaks) to boost learner motivation and retention.
- Create game loops that are aligned with pedagogical goals — not just fun, but educationally meaningful. - Work with product and AI teams to embed quest-based learning, adaptive difficulty, and narrative-driven learning journeys.
- Identify student engagement risks and design behavioral triggers to reduce dropout or fatigue. - Develop persona-specific gamification strategies for different age groups (e.g., 8-12 vs. 13- 16).
- Collaborate on UI/UX components like progress dashboards, avatars, rewards, and microinteractions.
- Conduct A/B tests, analyze engagement data, and refine mechanics based on student behavior and feedback. - Stay updated on emerging gamification trends in education, apps, and AI.

**What You Bring**
- 5+ years of experience designing gamification systems in apps or platforms (edtech, gaming, or behavioral design experience preferred).
- Deep understanding of motivation theory (intrinsic vs. extrinsic), player types, and habitforming design.
- Strong grasp of user psychology — especially for students and children.
- Experience working with learning designers, product teams, and/or UX teams.
- Familiarity with gamified platforms like Duolingo, Prodigy, ClassDojo, Khan Academy, etc.
- Bonus: Experience with AI-driven interactions or adaptive content systems.
- Bonus: Understanding of pedagogical frameworks (Bloom's Taxonomy, mastery learning, spaced repetition).

**Tools You Might Use**
- Figma / Miro (design mockups, gamification maps)
- Firebase / Mixpanel / Amplitude (tracking engagement metrics) - Game design frameworks (Octalysis, Game Thinking, etc.)
- Basic knowledge of Unity or Web-based animation tools (optional)
