Lead Game Designer (Clockmaker)

We are Belka Games—a leading mobile game developer ranked among Europe's top-grossing studios, according to data.ai. With over 110 million players worldwide, our titles frequently top the charts in the US and EU.

Clockmaker is a successful match-3 project with a history spanning more than 10 years. We're looking for a Lead Game Designer who will champion and expand the growth of one of our flagship games with massive potential!

What you'll be doing:

• Lead and inspire a team of game designers
• Ensure the overall game vision is maintained when developing new content, features, and gameplay mechanics
• Own the quality of features: from concept and ToR to measurable results
• Contribute to the product's strategic planning (KPI, Roadmap)
• Analyze player behavior (with the analytics team)
• Work closely with the producer, art department, development team, and other project specialists
• Develop the game's internal economy and monetization systems
• Calculate balance and analyze gameplay statistics
• Develop processes within the game design team: planning, reviews, and growth

What we need from you:

• 2+ years of experience as a Lead Game Designer

• Proven experience working on Match-3 or other casual game projects

• A strong understanding of the F2P gaming market and current industry trends

• A track record of successfully launched commercial projects

• Hands-on experience creating game documentation: concept docs, GDDs, and ToRs

• A genuine passion for developing mobile games

• Ability to set clear goals and stay focused on delivering results

• Extensive experience playing mobile games

• Familiarity with analytics tools and a solid grasp of product metrics

• Experience with prototyping tools (Figma, Miro, Sketch)

• Upper-intermediate English (B2) or higher

What you'll like about us:

• Remote/hybrid options: choose official employment in Georgia or work via a B2B contract from select countries

• Professional growth: we offer English lessons with an instructor, pay for trips to professional conferences, and partially reimburse employees for education

• Flexibility: sometimes you just want to try something new. We get it, so we'll support you if you decide you want to switch to a new position, role, or project

• Teamwork: we value the expertise of every member of our team, so we really listen to each other

• Data-driven decision-making: all our product-related decisions are ultimately based on metrics, not subjective feelings

• Plus all the standard stuff: official employment, health insurance, and partial reimbursement for your gym membership

The recruitment process will consist of three phases: an interview with our Recruiter, a test task, and a technical interview with our Game Producer.
