At Bullet Echo, we’re looking for a Lead Meta & Economy Designer to help shape progression, monetization, and long-term player engagement.
What You'll Do
- Own meta-game systems: progression, hero advancement, seasonal loops, long-term engagement mechanics
- Design and balance the in-game economy: currencies, sinks and sources, offer structure, reward systems
- Conduct an audit of the existing meta and economy as your first priority - understand what's there before changing it
- Collaborate with LiveOps on event design and reward structures
- Work with Analytics to define success metrics and evaluate performance
- Drive improvements and set direction for meta and economy systems
- Provide guidance and feedback to other designers where needed
What We're Looking For
- Strong Game Design background with deep expertise in economy design and meta systems, ideally in a lead capacity
- Experience with live F2P mobile games - you understand how meta decisions affect retention, monetization, and player lifecycle
- Ability to think in systems: progression curves, reward schedules, long-term balance
- Analytical mindset - comfortable validating decisions with data
- Structured, documentation-oriented - you leave your work understandable by others
- High ownership, comfortable working with limited direction in a small team
- Experience taking ownership of features or systems end-to-end
Nice to have
- Experience with midcore or PvP games
- Familiarity with Ads monetization and hybrid monetization models
- Previous experience mentoring or leading other designers
Why this role is interesting
- Opportunity to work on a successful live game with real scale, where economy decisions have visible player and business impact
- A highly strategic design role focused on systems thinking — balancing progression curves, rewards, and monetization holistically
- Ability to influence the long-term direction of the product, not just individual features
