Reporting to the Director of Live Service, you will be responsible for in-game revenue and audience metrics by designing meta game systems, rewards and economy that keep players coming back. You’ll partner across disciplines to ship safely and learn fast.
Key Duties
* Responsible for the levers that move engagement, retention and ARPU/ARPPU through live systems and content
* Own monetization targets, setting and tracking monthly revenue, conversion and ARPPU, and driving corrective actions
* Define sustainable meta systems (progression, season, live events) that scale, respect players time, and reinforce the core game
* Model and tune the economy (currencies, sources/sinks, pacing, drops) and reward systems (pacing, aspiration, fairness). Set alerts with Analytics and act on them
* Define pricing bands and shape offer structures, bundles and promotions (including regional considerations)
* Turn live pillars into shippable features and event templates. Produce clear specs, configs and wireframes with acceptance criteria, edge cases and rollback plans
* Work cross-functionally (game design, UI/UX, engineering, analytics) to shape and ship live features end-to-end. Plan fail-safes and rollout via CMS/feature flags
* Specify telemetry requirements for core loops and KPIs (DAU, ARPDAU, retention, funnel) so impact is measurable
* Significant experience in live/meta/game systems design, with at least one shipped live update you supported post-launch
* Strong systems, meta, rewards and balance craft. You turn design intent into bands, templates and clear specs
* Proven economy design & tuning: currencies, sources/sinks, XP pacing, pricing heuristics. You’ve fixed inflation/deflation and can operate within price/XP/drop bands
* Proven experience delivering live meta progression (events, seasonal progression, milestone goals) and collection or cosmetic systems, including setting up templates and configuration to scale them
* A modular, systems-first mindset. You create reusable tools, templates and configuration that keeps content velocity healthy and safe
* Hands on shipping through data-driven configuration and editor tools, with quick, cross-discipline collaborative iteration, runbooks and calm incident execution
* Crisp communication including concise specs, plain language explanations and strong cross-discipline alignment
* Sound monetisation judgement and player value sense across regions and platforms
* Working analytics skills including advanced Excel/Sheets (pivots, lookups, scenario modelling). You read dashboards/experiments and act
Desirable
* Behavioural economics, micro/macro-economic background
* First-party platform experience including submissions, entitlements, regional pricing, age ratings
* Familiarity with live incident playbooks, rollback plans and monitoring
* Exposure to content tooling and pipelines, including localisation
