  • You have previously accepted feedback and critiques that have helped tailor your work towards what's best for the game.
  • You understand why you made the decisions you've made in your designs - what worked well, what you would change in hindsight, and what you learned.

GREAT TO HAVE:

  • Professional game development experience with at least one shipped title.
  • Experience working in a game engine, using scripting tools, and familiarity with IDEs, debuggers, and scripting languages.
  • You can meticulously polish features to AAA quality.
  • Experience in rapid prototyping to test the feasibility of concepts.
  • You can pitch design concepts clearly, detailedly through written and verbal skills.
  • You are productive individually and within a team environment.

WHAT WE OFFER YOU:

  • Creative Freedom: You will directly affect the shape of the game and ensure we're making the best game possible and encouraged to iterate for greatness, scope wisely, and provide designs you are proud for players to enjoy.
  • Collaboration: You will collaborate with many disciplines to iterate and evolve many systems that sit outside the moment-to-moment gameplay.
  • Values: We share inspiration, knowledge, and passion with others. We aspire to treat our work as a personal masterpiece. We play other studios' games, stay informed about trends, and put time and passion into the biggest payoff for players.
  • Ownership: We are small and everyone has a lot of ownership over their work. You will oversee individual features from conceptualization to shipping. As part of a small team, you will shine here.
  • Growth: At Respawn we believe that all of our team members are on a professional development path. Progress in that journey is an essential component of happiness and satisfaction in one's work. Our team members are encouraged to follow their career interests, while also challenging themselves.
