Join the Play of Battle Team - Junior Game Designer (On-site Only)

At Play of Battle, we are creating an innovative Grand Strategy/RTS game that aims to redefine the genre. We are looking for a passionate Junior Game Designer to join our team in Warsaw.

This isn't just an entry-level job where you'll only format spreadsheets. You will have a real impact on gameplay systems, balancing, and content creation. If you breathe strategy games and military history, this is the perfect place to start your design career.

Your Responsibilities:

• System & Content Design: Assist in designing, implementing, and balancing core gameplay mechanics, economy systems, and military units
• Documentation: Create and maintain clear design documentation (GDD) that the team can easily follow
• Analysis & Iteration: Playtest the game daily, gather feedback, and iterate on mechanics to make the experience as engaging as possible
• Collaboration: Work closely with programmers, artists, and producers to bring design concepts to life

What We’re Looking For (The Requirements):

• Hands-on Experience: You have at least some commercial experience in the game industry (in any role, e.g., QA, Support, Community) OR you are an active modder who has designed and released mods for existing games. (Be prepared to showcase your work/mods!)
• The "Strategy Veteran" Mindset: You must be deeply passionate about Grand Strategy, 4X, RTS, and tactical games (think Paradox Interactive titles, Total War, Civilization, etc.). Note: We will definitely test your knowledge of these genres and their mechanics during the recruitment process
• Military Buff: You are deeply interested in military history, geopolitics, or modern warfare. You know your armor, tactics, and timelines, and you are ready to show us that passion in a casual chat during the interview
• Analytical Thinking: Strong logical and mathematical skills for game economy and combat balancing

Bonus Skills:

• Basic knowledge of Unity engine (huge plus)
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to accept constructive feedback
• You’ve built your own game prototypes, or mod (whether it’s a small hobby project in Unity/Unreal, a printable board game, or a complex Excel spreadsheet showcasing game balance)

Why Join Play of Battle?

You will join a focused, passionate team of industry veterans and strategy enthusiasts. We offer a space where your voice is heard, and your passion for military strategy is treated as a core asset, not just a hobby.

Ready to make a significant impact in the gaming world? We’d love to see what you can bring to our game. Apply now to become part of the Play of Battle family!
