I was Content Lead for 4 years and my responsibilities included zone prototyping and pathing, client/server zone and region support, terrain sculpting, area propping, cave/dungeon placement, game systems maintenance and small team management.Previous to this I worked as Terrain and Dungeon Lead, a position similar to Level Designer at other companies. I collaborated with the art team on asset design, and was then responsible for the construction of 30 complete dungeons from tile set. I managed a team of four people tasked with the construction of 60 instanced dungeon zones.I also had the opportunity to work as a quest and encounter designer. I designed and implemented content, including monster creation, items/treasure, experience and scripted events.
