Lead Economy Designer (Hybrid RPG)

Mission

As a Lead Economy Designer (Hybrid RPG), you’ll play a key role in shaping the commercial destiny of our RPG portfolio. You won’t be supporting someone else’s economy, you’ll own it. Across multiple live titles, you’ll be the person who decides how players earn, spend, and engage, and your decisions will be the difference between a game that stagnates and one that scales into global top rankings. Your main responsibilities will include:

• Design scalable RPG economy systems: build a core economic model that becomes a replicable strategic asset across titles, not a one-off rebuild per game
• Own the economic impact of every product feature: assess KPI implications before launch, produce risk-adjusted roadmaps, and ensure the team always knows what’s at stake
• Define pricing, sink/source balancing, and offer targeting strategies: create the full monetization architecture that drives IAP conversion and long-term player engagement
• Build economy simulations and data models: own all quantitative economy work end-to-end, from raw data analysis to live balancing decisions
• Partner directly with studios and publishing teams: translate complex economy frameworks into clear, actionable guidance that small teams can implement without friction

This is a great opportunity to own the economy across multiple live titles simultaneously, a rare scope in this industry, make your impact measurable in revenue and player KPIs, and operate at the intersection of product, game design, and data in a team that moves fast and plays to win.

Requirements

We are looking for someone with years of experience in free-to-play RPG economy design, and the humility, curiosity, ambition, and drive to make an impact fast. You’re a great fit if you have:

• Direct RPG - F2P economy ownership: you’ve designed and driven the core economy of a free-to-play RPG title end-to-end, not just contributed to sub-loops
• Strong data analysis skills: SQL is a must; you read game data fluently and translate it into clear economic decisions
• Hands-on execution mindset: you go into the details, you implement, and you iterate; you don’t hand over a framework and walk away
• Structured thinking and clear documentation: your work is organized, your outputs are legible, and studios can act on what you produce
• Strong communication skills: written and verbal; you can align distributed studio teams remotely without losing clarity or momentum

Bonus points if you have:

• Python or R experience for economic modeling and simulation
• Basic Unity knowledge for direct studio collaboration
• Experience on titles with significant IAP in the top 200 grossing RPG charts
• An AI-native workflow: you actively use AI to build models, speed up analysis, and multiply your output

Even if you don’t check every box in our requirements, we encourage you to apply. We value diverse perspectives and backgrounds, and we’re more interested in your potential and passion than a perfect match to our checklist.
