Gear Seven

game designer for casual puzzle games

In short

A casual puzzle studio with its first title in production is hiring a middle-level game designer to work hands-on on game features, meta, boosters, onboarding, and ad monetisation, and to run the product using retention, ARPDAU, and A/B testing. The role requires at least 2 years of experience as a game designer who has shipped a mobile casual game, with a focus on meta/features/monetisation rather than pure level design, plus daily use of AI tools. It's a fully remote, B2B contract position with flexible schedule and no relocation needed.
