• Provide leadership in all phases of level design, from conception and documentation to polish and debugging.
• Ensure the quality and consistency of all game levels--providing feedback, advocating for the tools and methodologies, requesting resources, and removing roadblocks for levels to be developed effectively.
• As an important member of the leadership team, you will ensure resource estimates and delivery schedules are met.
• Partner with technical and gameplay design teams to understand and address constraints while maintaining AAA quality levels
• Work in collaboration with the art team to ensure playability of levels works hand in hand with visual fidelity.
• Build and mentor the level design team to be the best in the industry.
