The Gamasutra Job Board is the most diverse, active and established board of its kind for the video game industry!

Here is just one of the many, many positions being advertised right now.

Senior Systems Designer, Legends of Learning

Location: Baltimore, MD

Senior Systems Designer

Location: 100% remote US time zone

Compensation: $150k

DISCLAIMER: While we are an educational game company, we operate on the assumption that current educational games suck. This position is for a commercial game designer to work with other commercial game studio veterans to build a FUN game that also happens to teach. We want someone who is ready to use their commercial skills to make an impact, but prior educational game experience is not required, or even desired.

About Legends of Learning

Through an innovative marketplace of educational games, Legends of Learning has created a captive audience of almost 5 million students in over 25,000 schools (and growing fast).

To capitalize on this guaranteed audience we have put together a top notch game development team to work on an all new at-home commercial gaming experience. We are looking for a senior Systems Designer to help design this consumer game.

If you’ve been in the industry long enough to understand that acquiring players is often harder than building a great game, then you know the opportunity that having a unique access to a large, excited, and ever-growing audience presents to an elite game team.

The company headquarters is in Washington DC, but we know that to hire the best, we need to look beyond our local geography so the team is being built as 100% remote first. In addition, Legends of Learning offers, full health and medical benefits, stock options, solid vacation time, and a stable financial and workload environment anchored by our platform business (which doesn’t suffer from the issues of a hit driven game studio). We are committed to a healthy life/work balance and we are ranked as one of the Best Places to Work in the Greater Washington area by the Washington Business Journal.

About Our Game Team

Our game team has experience working at many of the best known shops from the DC/MD/VA area. We are committed to delivering a best of breed and sustainable GaaS experience.

About You

We are looking for a Senior Systems Designer with a passion for delivering high quality player experiences for our all new home game. You must have shipped numerous commercially successful titles at various high quality studios.

Qualifications

Ten plus years or equivalent experience developing commercial games. Unity Programming skills a major plus.

Bonus Experience

  • Experience targeting WebGL.

  • Experience with free to play games, GaaS, and live ops.

  • Commercial Unity development.

  • A passion for educating children through entertainment.

Interested? Apply now.
