Description

Giant Skull is an independent game studio on a mission to craft unforgettable single-player, gameplay-driven action-adventures in rich, immersive worlds. We are currently working on a new game set in the Dungeons and Dragons universe. We are highly collaborative and value empowering autonomy; each individual at Giant Skull has the opportunity to feel their impact across the game, studio, and team. If you’re ready to join a studio where every voice shapes the adventure, we’d love to create something extraordinary together. The Role: As a Senior Content Designer, you’ll craft experiences that players will remember, creating moments that blend narrative, combat, and exploration. You’ll design and implement content and systems that bring our world to life, collaborating across disciplines to ensure every moment feels immersive and great to play. You’ll bring ideas from pitch to polish, while driving quality, clarity, and creativity to help push our design craft forward. \n Impact and Ownership You will work closely with the Game Director, Design Director, Lead Content Designer and other departments to brainstorm, design, and implement content and content systems. You will pitch, prototype, and create a variety of features to help create an exceptional player experience, including combat encounters, narrative moments, and design systems with a focus on game feel. You will collaborate across disciplines, working closely with Level Design, Art, and Narrative to help concept and create levels that combine traversal, puzzle solving, combat, and narrative delivery for a unique and cohesive player experience. You will design and own content and content systems from conception to the final stages of polish, facilitating communication and coordination across related departments. You will lead by example and help motivate, develop, and mentor junior designers. You will push to constantly raise the quality bar, develop solutions, streamline processes, and work cross-functionally with other departments. Qualifications You have 5+ years of experience in game design, ideally with at least one shipped title. You are competent with Unreal Blueprints, and may have experience with Angelscript. You bring a diverse set of skills that you will employ to create and manage narrative and combat content, quests, and assist in level design with a focus on game feel, flow, and balance. You understand how to balance design goals with technical constraints and scope. You are able to help concept, build and improve content systems, including back end structure and player and designer facing UI/UX. You are a proactive problem solver who brings clarity to ambiguous challenges and proposes solutions grounded in both creative vision and production reality. You are highly collaborative with the ability to work directly with art, code, animation, and other design departments. D&D Dungeon Master experience is a plus. We would love to see things you personally created. Why Join Giant Skull You will collaborate with a passionate team of AAA veterans from studios like Epic, Respawn, Rocksteady, Riot, and more on exciting and ambitious gaming projects. You will enjoy a development process that balances collaborative teamwork with a high degree of individual autonomy. You will benefit from competitive compensation, access to cutting-edge technology and resources to support your work, as well as opportunities for career growth, personal and professional development. You will be shown trust and flexibility through remote or hybrid options, open PTO, and support for balancing work and personal life. Your ultimate impact will be unconstrained by your focus areas. You will have the opportunity to shape not only the game we are making but the foundation of our studio and development cultures, best practices, team collaboration, and beyond. You will add to a deeply inclusive workplace where every team member is valued and respected. \n For this position, our target base salary range is 115k - 175k. Ranges may expand based on experience and location.
