dla Vile Monarch w Warszawa

Praca stała Design


Vile Monarch, a hard rock games studio from Warsaw, is looking for someone who has great ideas (“Yay, finally something for me!”) and knows how to get shit done (“Oh, too bad…”). Currently, the Monarch leads about 40 minions, including some veterans (who worked on This War of Mine, Dying Light, The Witcher series or Hard West) and in the five years of his reign shipped 4 successful games, conquering PC, Android, iOS, PS4, Xbox One and Switch.

  • Crush Your Enemies - multiplatform bite-sized RTS
  • Oh...Sir!! The Insult Simulator - hit party game based on building absurd sentences
  • Oh...Sir! Hollywood Roast - a spin-off in the world of film
  • Weedcraft Inc - big and ambitious tycoon game about the marijuana industry

Vile Monarch feeds on creativity - we love making fresh things of different sizes, for different platforms, in different genres. We focus on compelling fantasies served through expertly designed game systems. Currently, we’re working on several new titles, including a beautiful and surprising casual game, an ambitious city builder, an unusual management game in a magical setting. We need a gameplay or system designer with experience in designing 3D games and complex systems. We need a man or a woman who will take full responsibility for large features: that means concept, communication with coders and artists, tests, balance, polish, potentially managing other designers.

Requirements

  • Experience in game design - finished projects and at least 3 years working on design positions
  • Proficiency in system design (for example stuff related to economy, crafting, resource management or progression)
  • Thorough knowledge of office tools, especially spreadsheets
  • Empathy and understanding the audience, creating approachable, elegant mechanics
  • Ability to briefly and precisely communicate ideas, tidiness and regime in documentation
  • Discipline and self-reliance, organized work style
  • Very good English, both spoken and written
  • Willingness to work fully in Warsaw (home office is acceptable but only until the pandemic loose a grip)
  • Love for games, knowledge of various platforms and genres

Nice to have

  • Experience in managing teams of designers or other developers
  • Participation in projects in genres such as management, sim or strategy
  • Prior work in Unity
  • UX design experience
  • Love for beer, rock music and having embarrassing tattoos.

We offer

  • Fair salary
  • Important role in an ambitious game (or games!). We aim for compact, mid-scale projects (1-2 years of development, 10-30 people)
  • Stable job with flexible work hours
  • Working in a comfortable, air-conditioned office close to a metro station (Dworzec Gdański). Bonus: it’s on the 23rd floor, so the view is stunning.
  • Because of the pandemic it’s possible to work from home until things will be stable again.
  • Encouragement for self-development: you’ll work with experienced developers, and will have a chance to participate in sponsored conference trips. There is also a library of design books and scheduled talks about design theory.
  • Emphasis on mutual care and mental health (including professional support)
  • Very informal, friendly atmosphere - gaming and partying together, company trips, a fridge full of beer
  • Private medical care, MultiSport benefit cards
