📋 Description

• Create level layouts, hotspots, and points of interest (POIs) for players to explore according to the game's themes and lore, as well as within gameplay system constraints. • Resolve and iterate on game environments to guarantee a great play experience. • Prototype the environment, establish the layouts, and suggest ways of using the interactive and non-interactive elements to create the desired emotions. • As the project progresses, integrate the elements produced on the map (new gameplay, AI, sound, etc.). • Develop solid design documentation for level progression (flow), layouts, and 3D block-outs for in-engine playtesting. • Produce playtest information and requirements to aid QA in the validation and proofing of levels prior to approval.

🎯 Requirements

• 3+ years in level design for PC/console, with at least 1 shipped title or strong playable prototypes. • Portfolio of first-person levels showing solid combat spaces, exploration routes, and clear player flow. • Confident with engine tools (Unreal), from blockout to final, including metrics and simple scripting. • Systems-minded level design: create non-linear spaces that simultaneously support core mechanics, ample game features, AI behavior, and offer a high variety of player tactical opportunities. • Good understanding of how AI paths, cover, sightlines, and traversal options shape encounters. • Able to embed narrative and worldbuilding into levels through layout, composition, and micro-stories. • Comfortable iterating based on playtests, feedback, and changing direction. • Enjoy designing grounded, atmospheric, interconnected environments (tunnels, corridors, ruined structures, urban layouts, layered verticality).

🏖️ Benefits

• Excellence is one of our core drivers. Not only in the products we deliver, but also in the way we do things. • Continuous learning in order to be on top of the game, we always encourage our employees to keep updating and deepening their know how. • Flexibility to work in a fun and relaxed environment. Working remotely is an option. • Inclusion and Diversity: We want a diverse talent team and would like to encourage ethnicities, gender, age, and disabilities communities with a strong interest in developing themselves in the videogame industry to join us.
