Mathspace is on a mission to change maths education, by helping students and teachers with smarter, interactive learning software.

We’re an agile run, product-oriented company that focuses on delivering value through continual customer feedback, enabling students and teachers to have a delightful experience through learning mathematics.

We are now looking to expand our impact by incorporating gamification into our learning experience. To achieve this, we're seeking a creative and passionate Game Designer to help achieve this vision. The role is for a project based part-time 6 month contract. We expect around 20 hours per week over 6 months where the first weeks will be more intense as you define the vision for gamification, and then other weeks will be less intense as you wait for developers to build and test results to come through.

- Craft a gamification vision.
- Design game mechanics and models that will help enhance the learning experience.
- Collaborate with product managers, designers, educators, and developers to implement, A/B test and iterate on these mechanics.
- Analyse student data to understand behaviour and learning outcomes, using these insights to optimise the gamification elements.
- Contribute to a culture of creativity and fun for making a positive impact in education.

**Requirements**:

- Proven experience in game design, with a portfolio demonstrating expertise in gamification.
- Proven experience at an online game or product.
- Ability to develop mathematical models for progression and reward systems.
- Competency with Excel and prototyping tools.
- Critical thinking skills and a strong attention to detail.
- Strong communication and teamwork skills, with the ability to work effectively with a development team.

Bonus skills:

- A passion for education and a belief in the power of games to enhance learning.
- An understanding of the education market, learning theories and game based learning.

**Benefits**
- Vibrant and creative Surry Hills office or ability to work from home fully remote
- Relaxed and friendly work environment
- Make an impact on students across the world
