Design, implement, and iterate on combat encounters with AI and event scripting. Prototype encounter ideas independently and communicate your vision to the team. Collaborate with producers to plan, prioritize, and scope encounter designs. Work with cross‑functional departments (art, production, audio) to ensure encounters align with narrative and design vision. Requirements & Skills

Cinematic eye; conceptualize encounters that support narrative and communicate clearly visually to directors. Ownership of your content; responsible for shipping concepts after approval. Creativity; prototype ideas that we would never conceptualized. Proactive; pitch concepts you believe will make the game better. Generalist; learn skills that help complete vision (prototype assets, animation, VFX, mocap, audio, blueprint, etc.). Technical; comfortable with scripting and learning new software. Responsible; check‑in script and level content without breaking the build. Compensation & Benefits
