About the Role
Key Responsibilities
- Rapidly prototype web, mobile, and game-based interactive experiences turning concepts into playable demos, functional app prototypes, and testable digital products.
- Build core gameplay and interaction systems including mechanics, progression loops, reward systems, and responsive UI/UX patterns for browser and mobile-based experiences.
- Own hands-on development and toolchain setup across modern frameworks/engines (e.g., JavaScript/TypeScript, React, React Native, Flutter, Unity, Phaser, Three.js, Babylon.js, Node.js).
- Develop cross-platform client experiences for iOS, Android, web, and emerging channels (including XR/metaverse), applying appropriate delivery models.
- Use Generative AI + in-context engineering (“vibe coding”) and AI-assisted development approaches to accelerate prototyping, feature delivery, and iteration speed.
- Integrate APIs, data services, SDKs, analytics, and backend services to enable connected experiences, dynamic content, and prototype functionality.
- Run fast experimentation cycles playtesting, usability feedback, insight generation, and evidence driven refinement to validate hypotheses and improve experiences.
- Execute structured validation and readiness work: testing across platforms, performance optimization, feasibility/architecture input, and contribution to reusable studio frameworks/components/templates; collaborate with cross-functional partners to bring concepts to life.
What You’ll Bring
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Game Development, Interactive/Digital Media, or related field focused on interactive/immersive experiences.
- 4–5 years’ experience building interactive digital solutions, simulations, and/or game-based experiences.
- Hands-on proficiency with real-time engines or interactive development frameworks (web/mobile/game development).
- A strong prototyping mindset with comfort operating in ambiguity and rapid iteration cycles.
- Working knowledge of gameplay systems and engagement patterns (progression loops, reward mechanics, interaction design).
- Practical understanding of Generative AI and in-context engineering, including integrating AI capabilities into digital products/gameplay/workflows; familiarity with tools such as Claude Code, AWS Bedrock, Gemini Studio, MS Copilot is a plus.
- Ability to balance speed with quality, documentation, and compliance awareness; experience in regulated/highly governed environments preferred.
- Strong collaboration and problem-solving—experience working with multidisciplinary teams, including close partnership with global colleagues; interest in scientific/medical/healthcare problem spaces.
