Job description

Scopely is looking for a Game Designer to join our Star Trek Fleet Command team in Spain, Ireland, Portugal, or the United Kingdom on a remote basis within these locations. At Scopely, we care deeply about what we do and want to inspire play, every day – whether in our work environments alongside talented colleagues or through our deep connections with our communities of players. We are a global team of game lovers who are developing, publishing, and innovating in the mobile games industry, connecting millions of players around the world daily.

Star Trek Fleet Command is a standout success in the gaming industry. Launched in 2018, our in‑house developed 4X MMO has continually evolved, earning its place as one of the top‑grossing games on the market. Our next chapter is bold: we’re evolving the traditional 4X experience in STFC — and we need smart systems to power that next step.

What You Will Do

• Own the design and balance of new content and systems that drive engagement, conversion, and long‑term investment from our players.
• Build and refine novel gameplay experiences focused on resource generation, spending, time gating, and power growth.
• Create systems that foster meaningful player agency and long‑term investment.
• Leverage the deep Star Trek IP to create unique content and experiences that tap into the rich lore and characters of each movie or TV show within the franchise.
• Use tools (Excel, Google Sheets) to model economies and progression pacing.
