VIDEO GAME DESIGNER

Retro Studios, makers of the Nintendo hit Metroid Prime, is looking for an experienced Game Designer with proven Level Design skills. Candidates should have 3+ years industry experience as a level designer and several published games to their credit. Maya skills a plus, but not required.

Yeah, look at the requirements.

You'd be have a lot of portfolio work with renders, models, and lots of levels in many different engines.

Yep, and lots of other places.
