• Demonstrated talent for empathizing with players and a deep understanding of player motivations, forms of play, and the effects of goal-setting on play. 
• Strong interest in BR and multiplayer games with an understanding of what makes them work and the benefits and challenges associated with the live-service multiplayer space.
• Organized designer who can structure and plan their own work and guide planning and prioritization for their teams. 
• Solution-oriented problem solver who can react quickly to changing project needs and drive to and foster alignment with decisions.
