Supercell
Senior Gameplay Designer, Squad Busters
Helsinki
FULL TIME
October 31, 2024
We are looking for an experienced designer with comprehensive skills that range from developing first concepts to delivering fully-executed and polished features in a live-game environment. This is a hands-on role that requires learning, developing, and working directly on internal gameplay systems, as well as coordinating work with other developers to facilitate the highest quality and most effective content production.
Essential to this role is a deep understanding of gameplay, balancing, accessibility, and ongoing player experience within free-to-play and Pv P mobile games. Your responsibilities will include driving new gameplay content and design innovations, collaborating with other designers and developers, and delivering compelling experiences to a highly-engaged player community of millions of players. Design is a collective effort at Supercell, so it’s paramount that you constantly seek and manage input from developers and players alike!
We expect you to be self-motivated, goal-oriented and a strong team player. You take pride in your work and know what it means to take responsibility and deliver quality-focused products. We work in a dynamic and agile environment - meaning we don’t have long development cycles, but instead, we release new features, events and improvements to the game multiple times a year. We don’t have strict company processes that we need to follow, but instead, we create the process and deadlines independently as a team.
Responsibilities
- Come up with compelling new gameplay mechanics in collaboration with artists, to ensure features are well-visualized, intuitive and impactful
- Prototype and craft features in tandem with programmers, to optimize gamefeel and empower future design capability
- Organize, backfill, and provide detailed design specs on needed work, including visual mockups, to prevent design bottlenecks in production pipelines
- Take high-level ownership over final deliverables, to ensure the end-user experience is complete, balanced, polished, and tested
- Iterate and improve gameplay features, and shape the way in which they'll develop in the upcoming years
- Balance existing gameplay elements to ensure healthy engagement KPIs, and maintain a healthy state of the overall game meta
- Contribute new design ideas on ways to engage players, and collaborate with the team on the feature roadmap
- Share responsibility for the game’s overall design vision and ensure that the whole development team shares and agrees on the vision
- Extensive understanding, skills and experience with gameplay design
- Track record working with action gameplay games with moment to moment gameplay
- Understanding of other design areas (e.g. level design) is a big plus
- Proactive and productive way of working in collaboration with others
- Excellent communication, interpersonal and organizational skills
- Absolute passion for playing and delivering great gameplay experiences
Benefits and Compensation
Luring you in with glitter, glamour, and gems is not what we seek to do. We develop Supercell as an employer for you to do your best work and to call this the best experience in your professional life.
We want you to enjoy your time here fully, so we structure our compensation and benefits to serve this purpose. It starts with perceiving you as a human being, not a resource.
About Supercell
We are a game company based in Helsinki, Finland, with offices in San Francisco, Seoul and Shanghai. Since our launch in 2010, we've released six games globally – Hay Day, Clash of Clans, Boom Beach, Clash Royale, Brawl Stars, and Squad Busters.
To make six games, we've killed dozens along the way. That's because we're obsessed with quality. Our mission is to create great games that as many people as possible play for years and that are remembered forever. To achieve this goal, we put together the best possible teams and give them the freedom and independence to succeed.
You Might Love It Here...
If you love games, Supercell is the place for you. We're made up of proactive, independent teams that have the freedom to do what they think is best for their players, our games, and the company.
We know it takes more than trust and independence to make great games, so we also take good care of our people, providing them with the compensation, work environment and resources they need to succeed and have fun while at it.
This position is in Helsinki, but you're not?
Luckily, moving to Helsinki is easier than you might think. No matter where you would be moving from, our dedicated people will help you from beginning to end. We're here to ensure the process is as smooth as possible for you, your family and whoever and whatever you bring along. In addition to cats and dogs, we've even relocated a horse.
Not sure if you should apply?
Do it! You might feel like you don't tick all the listed requirements with stellar scores. That's fine! We're here to help you succeed. Also, we're happy to learn about any specific accommodations you might require to fully engage in our recruitment process.
And here's a video about what we do. (Best enjoyed with salmiakki and rye bread)
