Avalanche Studios is looking for a Senior Designer to help create our enemy and friendly character behaviors on an exciting, new, AAA project.  

The Position

The role will entail, together with programmers, implementing and tuning systems and behaviors.  It will require you to work at a high level to apply good design principles in the definition of characteristics and traits but also, more importantly, at a lower level to translate these design ideas into practical solutions and approaches.  This requires an interest and ability to script, debug and tune many aspects of character behaviours, including pathfinding, tactical decision making, group movement, combat, locomotion and interaction.

Another important part of the role is the ability to help define and work towards agreed goals regarding performance budgets, entity architectures, workflow standards and tools pipelines.  This requires the ability to work with leads and support disciplines to find a good balance between ambitious new development and consolidation and exploitation of existing solutions.  

To thrive in the Avalanche Game Design department, you need to be willing and have the ability to learn new tools and workflows. You have a positive attitude and the ability to motivate others, when the situation calls for it you should be willing to “get your hands dirty” by doing uninspiring or menial tasks. We are looking for someone who is articulate, has strong conceptual skills and has the ability to communicate ideas visually and verbally. You need to have a passion for games and an ability to articulate that passion clearly and analytically.

Qualifications

5+ years experience in a relevant field
In depth experience with at least one game engine/editor
In depth knowledge of scripting tools and paradigms for crafting AI behaviours
Good knowledge of AI theory, best practices, techniques and technology.  

Expectations on a Senior Designer at Avalanche

Strong analytical and formal thinking, able to break down problems into key variables and seeing relations between them
Capable of seeking and achieving alignment in a situation with conflicting requirements and opinions.
Driven to improve workflows, knowledge sharing and community within the company
Care for your colleagues and welcome the opportunity to mentor those less experienced
A diligent gamer
Vast and up to date knowledge of released games - able to draw references from this knowledge
Motivated and driven to provide a high quality and fun game experience for the player
