Job Description

At Wizards of the Coast, we connect people around the world through play and imagination. From our genre-defining games like Magic: The Gathering® and Dungeons & Dragons® to our growing multiverse, we continue to innovate and build new ways to foster friendship and connection. That’s where you come in!

This  Game Designer  role draws on your competitive Magic knowledge, your curiosity and enthusiastic proclivity for learning, and a deep, intuitive understanding of game design theory and philosophy. Our team of outstanding Designers collaborate to design and refine cards serving a broad variety of audiences and evaluate and improve the environmental impacts of those cards.

This role is about exploration and learning, solving complex problems, and collaboratively improving our sets. We seek to learn the shape and specifics of the environments we’re building. From there, you’ll work with the team to improve them, whether that’s by tweaking designs, removing them, or coming up with something entirely new.

You don't need to be an experienced designer yet; we'll work with you to refine your natural instincts and skills as a player into an outstanding designer.

This is an on-site role at our office in Renton WA. You will be required to be at the office from Tuesday to Thursday. 

What You'll Do:

  • Keep up to date on card files, build decks, and test interactions between cards.
  • Give feedback to Design leadership on playtests, card designs, interactions, and impressions.
  • Solve specific design problems at the card, deck, and environmental level.
  • Participate in team meetings and discussions by adding constructive, reasoned, and provocative insights to the conversation.

What You’ll Bring:

  • 2+ years of competitive Magic experience.
  • Comprehensive understanding of Magic’s mechanics and systems.
  • Self-motivated curiosity and creative thinking.
  • Insightful, nuanced, and eloquent communication to improve our shared vision.
  • Flexible, adaptable mind with a constant appetite for knowledge.
  • Deeply collaborative outlook and the confidence and trust to work with others.
