About your role

We are looking for an experienced Economy Game Designer to join Hero Wars: Alliance, our flagship mid-core battler.

You'll work on a large-scale game economy where progression, resources, rewards, monetization, and LiveOps form a complex, interconnected system. Your decisions will shape how players progress, interact with game systems, and stay engaged over time. Your challenge will be to design and balance an economy that can support a growing game world, evolving gameplay systems, and continuous content updates - while maintaining long-term balance, meaningful progression, and sustainable monetization.

What you'll be doing

Designing and balancing economic systems across progression, resources, rewards, events, and monetization.
Building and refining resource loops to support a healthy, sustainable game economy.
Evaluating how new features and content affect existing systems, player behavior, and overall economic balance.
Designing economic models that support long-term progression and continuous product development.
Using player data and analytics to validate hypotheses, identify imbalances, and improve economic performance.
Owning features from initial concept and GDD through development, launch, and post-release iteration.
Collaborating with Product Owners, analysts, developers, UI/UX designers, artists, and other stakeholders.

We hope that you have

5+ years of experience in Game Design.
Experience designing and balancing complex economic systems in mobile F2P games.
Strong understanding of midcore game economies, progression systems, and monetization mechanics.
Experience working with resource loops, reward systems, and LiveOps-driven economies.
Understanding of player motivation, audience segmentation, and the relationship between economy, progression, and monetization.
Experience using analytics and economic models to evaluate design decisions and improve released features.
Strong systems thinking and the ability to anticipate how changes in one part of the economy affect the entire game.
Ability to communicate design decisions clearly and take ownership of features throughout development.
