Game Designer & Level Designer

About the Company

Garawell Games is a focused mobile studio building high-quality hybrid-casual and casual titles. With over 1 Billion total downloads from our hyper-casual hits and millions more from our growing hybrid-casual portfolio, our team is dedicated to creating global successes.

About the Role

We are looking for a visionary Game Designer / Level Designer who thinks like a Product Manager and executes like a Master Architect. You will be a hybrid talent, someone who deeply understands the Hybrid-Casual Puzzle market, bridges the gap between Code and Art, and shapes both new prototypes and the Live-Ops of our existing hits.

Responsibilities

• Product & Live-Ops Mindset: Apply a Product Manager perspective to our active hybrid-casual titles. You will help design, manage, and iterate on Live-Ops systems (e.g., Battle Pass, Lava Quest) to boost retention and monetization.
• Prototyping & Innovation: Be the creative spark at the earliest stages of new prototypes. You will be part of the "Idea to Reality" process, ensuring our next games are innovative and mathematically sound.
• Level Design Excellence: Design engaging levels for Hybrid-Casual Puzzle games using Excel/Google Sheets and internal Unity tools. You’ll maintain perfect difficulty curves that keep players coming back.
• The Creative Bridge: Act as the vital link between Developers and Artists. You will translate design vision into technical requirements and aesthetic goals.
• Visual Direction: Use your keen "Art Eye" to find high-quality references and ensure the production meets market-leading standards until the final polish.

Qualifications

• Proven Track Record: You have at least one published game where you played a key role in Game or Level Design (preferably in the Puzzle/Hybrid-Casual space).
• Analytical Mindset: You don't just play top-tier games like Royal Match or Royal Kingdom; you deconstruct them. You understand why their mechanics work and how their meta-layers are built.
• Execution over Documentation: We move fast. While we don’t focus on heavy GDDs, you are comfortable providing clear reports and documentation when needed.
• Unity & Data Awareness: You have enough Unity experience to implement designs and communicate effectively with the dev team. You are also eager to learn and use data to iterate on designs.
• Art Visionary: You have a great eye for visual trends in the mobile market. You know what "good" looks like and can guide artists to reach that level.

Required Skills

• Proven Track Record in Game or Level Design.
• Strong analytical skills and understanding of game mechanics.
• Experience with Unity and data-driven design.
• Ability to provide clear documentation and reports.
• Strong visual design sensibility.

Why Garawell

• Direct impact on prototypes that can reach millions.
• Creative autonomy and a polish-first prototyping culture.
• Remote-friendly, virtual office setup with fast feedback cycles.
• Work on varied projects rather than a single long pipeline, balancing new prototypes with exciting Live-Ops challenges.

How We Hire

1. We’ll first reach out with a brief message.
2. You’ll complete a short application survey.
3. A 5–10 minute intro chat.
4. A case assignment (Focusing on puzzle level design, live-ops feature conceptualization, or deconstructing a popular game's mechanics/economy).
5. Offer decision based on the case and overall fit.

Apply on LinkedIn with your CV + portfolio (please include published project links, level design samples, deconstruction articles, or any relevant design work).
