  • Apply expertise to evaluate and elevate content across multiple products and formats
  • Collaborate with producers, project leads, and graphic designers to build project schedules
  • Review game content at key pipeline stages to identify issues with rules clarity, mechanical consistency, and internal standards
  • Apply combined design and editing experience to strengthen rules language, catch inconsistencies, and improve usability across manuscripts and final files
  • Represent Wizards of the Coast and D&D at events and in interviews
What You'll Bring:
  • Bachelor's degree in the liberal arts, or equivalent professional experience
  • 6+ years developing RPG products with significant credits on products from known publishers
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills
  • Strong familiarity with Dungeons & Dragons and proficiency in the fifth edition rules
  • A track record of developing innovative and balanced game mechanics
  • Experience collaborating with and guiding both in-house and external designers
  • An eye for detail and dedication to excellence
