Responsibilities

Design and implement NPC AI behaviors and systems to deliver dynamic, engaging gameplay experiences.

Maintain concise and clear documentation of Combat AI designs, systems, and behaviors to ensure smooth development and collaboration across teams.

Participate in cross-disciplinary meetings to review designs, gather feedback, and collaborate on improvements to Combat AI systems.

Collaborate with game designers, level designers, and engineers to ensure Combat AI systems can always react to new maps, modes, player objectives, and changes to constant gameplay balancing on an expanding live-service title.

Work with our technical team to implement the Combat AI using the tools and systems you help design.

Balance Combat AI difficulty and capabilities to create challenging but fair experiences for players.

Integrate feedback from playtests and user data to fine-tune Combat AI behaviors, adapting to the needs of diverse player bases.

Stay up to date on industry advancements and innovations in Combat AI to improve the intelligence, realism, and performance of in-game Combat AI systems.

Minimum Requirements

Professional experience designing and implementing Combat AI systems in games (preferably with shipped titles).

Experience creating and working with user stories that determine the "what" and "why" of AI behaviors.

Strong technical skills, including visual scripting and an advanced understanding of Combat AI decision-making systems (e.g. utility AI, state machines, pathfinding, behavior trees, etc.).

Strong communication skills with the ability to communicate with both highly technical and less technical collaborators.

An understanding of gameplay balancing, AI tuning, and creating compelling player experiences through AI agent behaviors.

A collaborative attitude with the ability to give and receive constructive feedback.

Pluses

A technical background with experience working closely with engineers.

Familiarity with agile project environments and iterative design processes.

Experience with combat AI, non-combat AI, or procedural AI generation.

Knowledge of tactical/spatial queries.
