• Confident in engine tools (Unreal), blockout to final, metrics, and basic scripting for events;
• Deep understanding of how AI, cover, sightlines, and traversal interact with level layout;
• Experience mentoring other LDs, giving actionable feedback, and maintaining quality standards;
• Comfortable collaborating with game design, art, narrative, and tech to align levels with core pillars;
• Able to embed narrative and worldbuilding into levels through layout, composition, and micro-stories;
