Senior game mode designer

We are DICE

We entertain millions of people across the globe with the most amazing and immersive interactive software in the industry. To do this, we employ the most creative, passionate people.

DICE (EA Digital Illusions Creative Entertainment), the award-winning developer based in Stockholm, Sweden, is best known for creating the phenomenally successful Battlefield and Star Wars Battlefront franchises.

The DICE Design team creates the layer between fiction and reality. Our mission to immerse players makes DICE UI technology challenging and fun. Challenges are given by UX design, but also rendering performance and implementing our outstanding art direction. At DICE, nothing is impossible and if a feature makes the experience better for our players we will make it work.

As an Experience Designer at DICE, you work with other coders, artists, game designers and producers in diverse feature teams and report to our Design Craft Manager. You often be the spider in the web tying features together. You like to get things running quickly to test it, and then iterate and redo until features are fun and feels right. Pushing boundaries is not just something we say we do, it will be your job.

We are expanding our Design team and we need an experienced Experience designer with front-end knowledge to join our team. What this means is that you work in Frostbite’s editor building the game. Improve new game ideas with other team members. You love to simplify and challenge existing ideas, you have no problem to use what someone else has built to achieve your goals. You need to have a sense for visuals and UX but at the same time be structured and understand the importance of using best practices for collaboration in large teams.
