Reward Economy Lead (all genders)

Your mission

We are seeking a talented and experienced Game Economy Designer to join our team.
This is a unique opportunity for any economy designer where you get to merge your experience in game economy balancing with real money rewards.

We pay out millions of dollars each month as reward to players of our games, and are seeking our first Reward Economy Lead to design and help us develop the ideal balance of rewards and earnings.
