About the Role
We're looking for an exceptional Game Designer to help build the most fun and engaging consumer app in the world. This is not a traditional game design role. You'll design the mechanics, UI, UX, progression, and reward systems that power games and interactive experiences inside Beast World. You'll think deeply about how players discover, learn, play, compete, and come back. You'll work across original games, Beast Live, tournaments, quests, and social experiences, partnering closely with Product, Design, Engineering, Data Science, and Creative.
What You'll Do
- Design game mechanics and the systems around them: progression, quests, achievements, tournaments, leaderboards, collectibles, and in-game economies that are simple to learn and rewarding to master.
- Own the end-to-end player experience: onboarding, tutorials, HUDs, menus, rewards, and game flows, building the interaction patterns that keep every Beast World game feeling consistent.
- Design the moments of delight, interaction, animation, feedback, and reward presentation that give our games their feel.
- Communicate ideas through wireframes, user flows, and interactive prototypes, then playtest and iterate fast on player feedback and product metrics.
- Partner daily with Product Designers, Motion Designers, Engineers, Artists, and Data Scientists to bring ideas to life.
- Review and collaborate with external game studios to raise the quality of gameplay and player experience across the ecosystem.
Qualifications
- Have shipped games, with outstanding product instincts, and understand what makes games genuinely fun.
- Loves elegant mechanics, intuitive UX, and memorable moments, not manipulative monetization.
- Designs experiences that are safe, fair, and fun for everyone on purpose, from the start.
- Have 5+ years of experience, but we weigh what you've shipped over how long you've been shipping.
- Experience designing both game mechanics and player UX/UI, with excellent visual and interaction design instincts.
- Strong understanding of player psychology, engagement, progression, retention, and game feel.
- Pristine wireframes, mockups, and prototypes in Figma or similar tools.
- Strong systems thinking and the ability to balance interconnected gameplay mechanics.
- Comfortable using data to validate ideas while maintaining strong creative intuition.
- Excellent communication and collaboration across design, engineering, product, and creative.
Bonus Points
- Shipped an indie game you're proud of.
- Experience designing multiplayer, live-service, or social games.
- Experience balancing virtual economies and progression systems.
- Experience designing all-ages or age-appropriate experiences kids and families are part of our world.
- Familiarity with Unity, Unreal, Godot, or similar game engines.
- Experience designing for mobile-first experiences.
- Passion for YouTube creators, MrBeast, and building products for millions of users.
