Being a Technical Designer at Wargaming Sydney doesn't mean we just design games. Not only do we know our way around game development, but we also understand the experiences we want to create for our players and how to bring this to reality. From exploring new concepts through prototyping to balancing gameplay designed from groundbreaking mechanics, your work will define the next generation of designs and pipelines that empower development teams and inspire gamers for years to come. Your considered communication, comprehensive design sensibilities, problem-solving abilities, and eye for detail are our tools of the trade as we strive to bring new experiences to our audience.

A Senior Technical Designer; with around 5+ years of professional experience tackling a variety of problems, design tools and game engines

The embodiment of great design; you are fluent in many game systems and mechanics but have the critical thinking skills to know when it's time to try something more out of the box
